Match Preview

Coventry made no mistake against a mid-table Swansea side before the international break, scoring three times in 11 first-half minutes to seal a comfortable away win. The Sky Blues have won seven of their last eight Championship matches and are nine points clear at the top of the table.

Derby, meanwhile, are fighting to keep their play-off dreams alive. John Eustace got one over on his former club, Birmingham, in the Rams' most recent league match after Rhian Brewster scored the only goal of the game. The visitors have won four of their last five, and are three points behind Southampton in sixth.
