Match Facts

Four of the last five league meetings between Coventry and Blackburn have been draws, with the Sky Blues winning the other at home last season, a 1-0 win.
Although they lost 1-0 away from home at Coventry last season, Blackburn have never lost consecutive league visits against the Sky Blues.
Coventry are unbeaten in seven home league games (W3 D4), last enjoying a longer such run in October 2021 (8).
Blackburn have lost both of their last two away league matches, last losing three on the bounce in October 2022. Rovers have just one clean sheet in their last 15 away league games.
Blackburn’s Sam Gallagher has scored in three of his four previous league appearances against Coventry (3 goals), although the one exception was at the Coventry Building Society Arena in April 2022.
