Team News

Coventry
Sheff Wed
  • Mark Robins will be forced into one change this weekend with Josh Eccles replacing the injured Ben Sheaf in central midfield.
  • Fellow midfielder Liam Kelly is also likely to miss out after failing to return to fitness in time to make the trip to Sunderland.
  • Danny Röhl looks set to hand a start to centre-back Di'Shon Bernard with Akin Famewo likely to make way.
  • Michael Smith and Josh Windass are both doubtful for this Boxing Day fixture.

Prediction

  • Coventry were at their clinical best on Saturday afternoon, scoring three goals from just five shots on target as they condemned Michael Beale to a 3-0 defeat in his first game as Sunderland manager. The Sky Blues are now unbeaten in their last four league matches and have a chance of ending 2023 in the top half if they continue their current trajectory.
  • Sheffield Wednesday were on course for a deserved three points against Cardiff at the weekend but conceded twice after the 74th-minute mark as they walked away from the match with nothing to show for their efforts. Danny Röhl's men remain six points adrift from safety after that result and have won just once away from home in the league this season.
