Match Facts
Coventry City have lost just one of their last 10 home league games against Rotherham United (W4 D5), a 3-0 defeat in League One back in November 2013.
Following a 2-0 home win in October this season, Rotherham United could record a league double over Coventry City for the first time, whilst the only other time they’ve won back-to-back league games against them came in 2003.
Coventry’s 3-0 defeat to Preston was their first home loss in the league since October (2-0 against West Brom) – Mark Robins’ side haven’t lost successive such games since August 2022 (run of three).
Rotherham are yet to win any of their 17 away league games this season (D4 L13) – the last Championship side that failed to win any of their first 18 such games was Rotherham in 2018-19.
Tom Eaves has scored in each of his last two away league games for Rotherham (2), as many as in his previous 19 away league appearances for the Millers (2).
