Last updated : 23 December 2008 By Covsupport News Service

Coventry City's chances of winning at Swansea City on Boxing Day are not good if you believe the odds offered by bookmakers BET 365.

The bookies are only offering odds of 3-1 on City coming away from their first ever visit to the Liberty Stadium with a victory.

They are offering odds of 10/11 on Roberto Marintez's side to win with 12/5 on the draw.

This is the 23rd meeting of the two sides with Coventry having won 12 of those games. There has been five draws. City have scored 46 goals compared to Swansea's 44.

Coventry have not played at the Liberty Stadium before. Their last trip to Swansea was for a friendly on August 9th 1988 which they won 3-1. Their last league game at Vetch Field brought a 2-1 defeat on August 31st 1982.
