Coventry host Fulham after consecutive Premier League victories
Seven games into the Premier League campaign, Coventry sit 17th with six points and look to build momentum against 18th-placed Fulham, who have five points.
Coventry have made a slow start overall with six points from seven matches, but momentum has shifted rapidly. Back-to-back victories have revitalised their campaign, following up a 1-0 away win at Nottingham Forest with an emphatic 4-1 triumph over Newcastle at the Coventry Building Society Arena. Back in the top flight after a 25-year absence, the Sky Blues are beginning to find their feet.
Fulham are still finding their feet under a new head coach, sitting one place behind their hosts after taking five points from seven fixtures. Recent results have been hard to come by, with two draws and three defeats in their last five league outings, including a 2-1 loss away at Ipswich Town.
