The EFL Championship returns with a fresh set of fixtures as Coventry City welcome Swansea City to the Coventry Building Society Arena Stadium on Tuesday.
The hosts will be desperate to get one over the visitors, having failed to secure a win in the last eight meetings between the sides.
Coventry City returned to winning ways last Saturday as they claimed a narrow 1-0 win away to Hull City.
Prior to that, Mark Robins’ men were on a three-game winless run, suffering a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Preston North End sandwiched between draws against Blackburn Rovers and Derby County.
For all their recent struggles, Coventry City are currently fourth in the EFL Championship table after picking up 27 points from 15 games.
Similarly, Swansea City claimed a comprehensive 3-0 win over Peterborough United at the Liberty Stadium last Saturday.
This followed a 2-1 loss to Birmingham City which saw their run of two consecutive wins come to an end.
With 20 points from 15 games, the Swans are currently 13th on the log, but could rise to eighth place with a win on Tuesday.
