Coventry City pack their bags to visit West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Sky Blues will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 15 and win only 5 of the 27 games.
The previous match played between the two at The Hawthorns was within the last three years, in December 2001, the Baggies carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a League Division One match.
