Coventry vs Cardiff

Coventry City have won just three of their last 17 league matches against Cardiff City (D4 L10) and lost both meetings last season.

Cardiff have won four of their last eight league visits to Coventry (D2 L2), most recently winning 2-1 in April this year.

Coventry City have lost nine home league games so far in 2024, last losing more such matches in a calendar year in 2003 (10) under Gary McAllister (9) and Eric Black (1).

Cardiff City are winless in their last 10 away games in the Championship (D4 L6), since winning back-to-back games at Coventry and Birmingham in April; the Bluebirds last went longer without victory on the road in November 2014 (11 across Premier League and Championship).

Coventry’s Ellis Simms netted seven goals in his final 11 Championship appearances at the Coventry Building Society Arena last season but has scored just once in seven home outings so far this season.
