Bristol City - Coventry City, Championship 10.3.



Bristol holds 9th place in Championship, just two points behind play-off place. After good run of results (five wins from six games), they made a draw (home, Blackpool 0:0) and two looses (away, Birmingham 0:1 and Derby 1:2), scoring just once. Against Derby they didn't have enough luck. After a defence's  mistake, they conceded a goal in the 1st minute. After that, they were dominate, making the chances and score in 80th minute, but another mistake in the next minute costed them a point. Dele Adebola, Nigerian striker is injured (doubtfull for this game) and that's the main reason why their good performances stay unawarded. Midfielder Cole Skuse is also in doubt.

Coventry lies in the middle, I don't think they'll finish on much better or worse place. After six games without a loose they made two defeats at home (Sheff.Utd. 1:2 and Chelsea 0:2). The thing that's important for this clash is their very tough schedule in the previous weeks. In the period 7.2.-7.3. they played eight(!) games mostly with very strong opponents. The last one was against Chelsea (0:2 at home). The problem of most "smaller" clubs when they play against the best is game after. After one of the best world teams it's very hard to concentrate and focus on Bristol. Left back Daniel Fox will be sidelined at least three more weeks, striker Leon Best will keep playing with the mask and David Bell returns in team.

The true is Bristol City probable can't imagine better opponent for waking up. Premier Leauge is calling, still isn't too late for fight. Home win and I simply love to gamble on handicap win, so will do it again.
