Coventry City prepare to entertain Southampton at Coventry Arena on Tuesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Sky Blues are clearly on top, having won 30 and lost only 6 of the 53 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Coventry Arena was just last season, in August 2005, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a Championship match.

Recent respective form guides
Coventry City's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Sky Blues have scored 7, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.
Southampton's away form is none too clever either, collecting 2 wins and 3 draws from the last six. The Saints's have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 10 goals for and 8 against.
Coventry City find themselves struggling down in 17th position in the league having picked up 38 points from their 33 matches. Southampton are just outside the promotion places, in 4th, having taken 56 points from 33 games.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the Sky Blues at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Saints come away with an easy victory. Away win
