History of the Coventry City v Wimbledon fixture

Coventry prepare to entertain Wimbledon at Highfield Road on Wednesday evening, and hold the advantage on previous meetings between the two. The Sky Blues have the slight edge, having won 6 of the 16 games compared to Wimbledon's 3 wins.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Highfield Road was less than a year ago, in March 2003, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a League Division One match.
