'A win we deserved' - Lampard
Coventry have won five of their past six league games under Frank Lampard

Coventry City head coach Frank Lampard feels they deserved their late 1-0 win over QPR on Tuesday night purely because of the tough schedule of games they have had.
Bobby Thomas' injury-time header means the Sky Blues are now just one point outside the Championship's play-off places.
Coventry had lost to the leaders Leeds last Wednesday before going out of the FA Cup at home to Ipswich on Saturday.
"It was a great feeling for everybody in the stadium - it was a tough night and looked like it was going to be 0-0," Lampard told BBC CWR.
"It's been a challenging week with the tough games we've had but we kept going and we got a win I think we deserved, not necessarily on the play because it was a close enough game.
"But in terms of the week we've been through it would have been easy to lose momentum tonight but we've been able to keep hold of it to a degree with the late winner."
Coventry visit Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship on Saturday 15 February.
