Coventry City will host Blackburn Rovers at the Coventry Building Society Arena in round 19 of the EFL Championship on Tuesday (November 1).
The visitors head into the midweek clash on an impressive four-game winning streak and will look to keep that run going.
Coventry were sent crashing down to earth on Saturday, as they fell to a 2-1 loss against Blackpool. Before that, they were on a four-game unbeaten run, claiming ten points from a possible 12.
With 17 points from 15 games, Coventry are 22nd in the standings, level on points with 21st-placed Middlesbrough just outside the relegation zone.
Meanwhile, Blackburn continued their charge to the top of the standings with a slender 1-0 victory at Hull City last weekend. They have now won their last four outings, stretching back to a 1-0 defeat against Wigan Athletic on October 11.
With 33 points from 18 games, Blackburn are second in the ponts table, two points off leaders Burnley.
