    Coventry 2-1 Millwall

    George Saville and debutant Adam Mayor are on for George Honeyman and Zian Flemming for the away team. Bold call from Joe Edwards, Flemming certainly looked the most dangerous of any of the Millwall players.

    Coventry 2-1 Millwall

    Coventry look like a different team since the substitutions. Every time they come forward they look like they could score, and the fans are feeling that!

    Callum O'Hare again causes problems as he goes down right on the edge of the area. The referee waves play on but Millwall might be slightly relieved about that decision! There was certainly contact and it was in a very threatening area.

    More changes coming for Millwall, who need to come up with something.

    Well, in the famous words of Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook in 'Cool For Cats', that's changed the mood a little.

    Cov have clearly put the Squeeze on.

    One decidedly dodgy penalty, one weak piece of near-post goalkeeping - two Haji Wright goals and suddenly this stadium sounds like a different place.

    From a Sunday morning church service to full mini-Wembley!

    Goals Change Games!!!

    Coventry are in again, with Haji Wright now a complete menace in that Millwall box.

    He finds Victor Torp, whose shot is deflected up and over by Japhet Tanganga.

    Torp then takes the corner but it goes by without a threat.

    All Coventry now!

    What a brilliant goal.

    Haji Wright has gone near post and if you go near post you have to score - and he has. He caught out the keeper, who thought he would go across him for the far post.

    Millwall were the better side for 25-30 minutes but Coventry deserve to be ahead and look like scoring every time they go forward.

    Two in three minutes for Coventry and Haji Wright!

    Callum O'Hare turns in midfield and charge at the Millwall defence. Jake Cooper runs out but can't meet O'Hare, who plays in Wright in the box.

    His near-post effort has too much power for Matija Sarkic, as it wriggles past into the net.

    What a turnaround!

    It looked like a clear trip to me and the ref saw it that way too.

    Haji Wright said "I'm the man".

    He talked the talk and walked the walk.

    Cool as you like!

    It's a long run-up and Haji Wright calmly slots the penalty down the middle as Matija Sarkic dives to his right - and Coventry are level.

    Millwall defender Japhet Tanganga takes down Haji Wright!

    The Tottenham loanee gets his right leg tangled with Wright's left and it's a clear spot kick.

    The Coventry striker has picked himself off the ground and will take it...

    Coventry 0-1 Millwall

    Into the final third of this game and Coventry are currently looking at just a second defeat in 21 games at the CBS Arena in all competitions.

    Millwall, by contrast, have struggled in recent months so this would be a huge result for them.

    First changes for Millwall and the goalscorer Romain Esse is coming off, as is Michael Obafemi, with Tom Bradshaw and Duncan Watmore on to freshen up their attack.

    Chance for the home side. The ball comes to Victor Torp on the edge of the box after some nice build-up play by Jay Dasilva and Callum O'Hare, but the midfielder's shot is deflected wide.

    Again the corner comes to nothing for Coventry.

    The home side send in another corner and Matija Sarkic gets just enough on it with Haji Wright lurking. It just isn't quite happening in the final third for Mark Robins' players at the moment.

    The eight games Millwall have won this season have all been won without conceding a goal.

    Steve Ogrizovic (pictured) is a Coventry City legend and was a wonderful goalkeeper, so he's well qualified to talk about clean sheets. The 1987 FA Cup-winner has obviously been doing his homework, and we reckon he quite enjoys it too!

    Coventry get a corner after Jay Dasilva's pass is deflected behind. Here come the big guys from the back, but it comes to nothing.

    Bobby Thomas is coming on for Josh Eccles and Ellis Simms for Kasey Palmer for the hosts.

    It's another good effort from Tatsuhiro Sakamoto. You knew he was going to get his shot away.

    The goalkeeper did well to stop it at the near post. It's a good start to the second half by Coventry.

    There's been a real energy and pace to this game throughout, some really good football.

    Some movement on the bench. Changes coming shortly for the hosts.

    Tatsuhiro Sakamoto bursts forwards down the right-hand side for Coventry and gets past Joe Bryan, before firing low to the near post.

    Millwall keeper Matija Sarkic gets down well to force the save, before the linesman flags for offside on the follow-up.

    Bryan wins a corner for the visitors up the other end but it goes all the way over everyone for a goal-kick.

    Joe Bryan sends in a free-kick to the Coventry box. It falls for Michael Obafemi, who shoots goalwards - but the ball was always rising over the bar.

    Millwall immediately push forward at the start of the second half, with Michael Obafemi going down under a challenge in the Coventry box to muted penalty appeals.

    Tatsuhiro Sakamoto then plays a good ball in from the right at the other end, but Japhet Tanganga protects it well from Haji Wright and sees it behind for a goal-kick.
