Midfielder Carl Baker remains out with a hamstring injury, while defender Jordan Clarke is available.


MATCH FACTS

Head-to-head

• Only one win separates these clubs after 47 competitive meetings over nine decades. Cardiff have won 19 and Coventry 18, with 10 drawn.

• Cardiff are unbeaten in eight Championship matches against the Sky Blues, winning six of them.

• Lucas Jutkiewicz, who is now at loan to Middlesbrough, gained Coventry a point in an equaliser on the hour in the 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture. But they have not beaten the Bluebirds since a 1-0 Championship triumph at Ninian Park in August 2007.

Cardiff City

• The Bluebirds failed to score for the fourth time in six league outings when held to a goalless draw by Burnley at the Cardiff City Stadium on Sunday.

• Malky Mackay's Carling Cup runners-up have recorded two wins in 10 league outings, and have plunged from a top three berth out of the play-off places.

• But, going into this midweek batch of matches, Cardiff had not lost at home to any of the bottom-half clubs.

Coventry City

• Having completed 16 Championship games without a draw, struggling Coventry have now had three on the spin.

• Andy Thorn's side will make a 19th attempt to notch their first away league win of the season, to add to their pitiful total of four points on the road.

• The club with the poorest attack in the Championship, are also in danger of a 500th loss in second level league football.

2 - 0 to City. Miller to score.

2-0 Cardiff for me

1-0 cardiff

1-0 City

Ugly win

Cheers Rhys - After tonights results...has to be a home win

3-0

1-0 miller

Cardiff City 0-2 Coventry City.

2-1 city win

3-0 bluebirds,with conway to score if he starts

1-1 ,i really hope im wrong though

Early goal, confidence grows, and the fans support brings home an easy 4-0 win with Miller scoring.
then all the negativity lifts

1-1.

Coventry have 4 (FOUR) points on their travels this season and scored 7 (SEVEN) goals in those games.

Anything else than a comfortable win would be an appalling result but the way City are performing of late who knows?

The way we've been playing lately, 4-5-1 at home. Can only see a draw, 1-1 maybe.

It's got to be a win tonight, I can just feel it.

3-0 Miller brace and a Whitts screamer

cardiff 1 Coventry 0 - Whitts Pen.

P.S, when ever I predict Cardiff to win we lose.

Well done Cov

I'm really pleased with this result. It keeps us Seagulls in 4th place.
