Matchday #16 Nottingham Forest v Coventry City (1 Viewer)

[Coventry La La La]

Nottingham Forest v Coventry- The City Ground
K.O Tuesday, 9th November 7:45pm
Referee: Andre Marriner from Solihull

Coventry City - (5th) 24points

Ben Turner and Clive Platt are doubtfull with Injury so a change to the regular starting line-up may have to be changed for the 1st time in 5 league games. McPake and Eastwood are both available but I expect Marlon King and Lukas.J to start.
Coventry are in fine form away from home with 3 wins and 1 draw in the last 4 away games.

Coventry City Away Form : LLWdWW

Nottingham Forest (14th) 20 points

Nottingham forest are in fine form at home they have not lost at the City ground in 26 games.
Forest are the Championship's draw specialists, and this is undermining their bid to repeat last term's march to the play-offs. Saturday's 1-1 draw at Watford was their eighth stalemate of the campaign.
And the City Ground has not been a happy hunting ground for Coventry, who have lost and failed to score on their last two visits. In fact Forest are a bogey side for the Sky Blues, having lost only 18 of the 98 previous encounters between these clubs.

Nottingham Forest Home Form : DDWDWW

My Predictions​

Score 1-1 (Marlon King)​

K.Westwood
Keogh McPake Wood Cranie
Gunnarson Carsley(C) Clingan McSheffrey
Jutkiewicz M.King ​

considering their home record a win is very hard to see, to be honest i would take a draw and hopefully go to selhurst on saturday and get the win, 4 points from 2 away matches would be good. 1-1 (gunnarson)

 

[SkyBlueKay]

I'd like a win for my birthday but I can't see it happening so I'm gonna say 1-1

Same line up...but I'm gonna say Keogh to score!

Keogh!!!, Keogh!!!, Keogh!!!

 

[SkyBlueKay]

I've changed my mind...I'm going to be positive!

C'mon lads...lets get a win! It'll be a bloody good birthday present!

We are gonna miss Turner and Platt so much,if we had to choose 2 players not to be missing surely it'd be these 2 at this moment in time.We are a big,strong,and direct team and Platt and Turner are 2 of the biggest/most physical players in the team.I know King is 6 ft but he's a totally different player to Platt,he'll be playing more off Jutkiewicz,rather than us having 2 target men up top.McPake will come in for Turner,but i would put Cameron in (is he injured ?),he did well at the start of the season,but Cameron should certainly be on standby for Saturday because if McPake does play,he'll probably be injured fot the Palace.
Hopefully we will end Forest's unbeaten home run but with 2 key players out it's gonna be even more difficult !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Im gonna say 2-1 to us we seem to be doing well against these so called bogey teams, marlon and mcsheffers to score i know marlon has to score this time for his first goal i can sense it

 

[dutchman]

Coventry to bounce back from Saturday 1-0

McSheffrey to score (again)

[smileycov]

i'm going cant wait, anyone know how many we taking?
i feel 2-1 city, sheffers and king. we will play different with marlon in the side, so i am not panicking about platt. very sad to see turner out though

 

[Disorganised1]

I've gone for 1 - 1 ~ Duke again.

 

[Pigeon]

2-1 PUSB. Shame about Turner though!! Duke and Woody.

 

[covladzak]

A draw away will always work for me... Im thinking 1-1 as well....... Gary the Coventry kid to score... Don't listen to me as I have not got one correct yet...

 

[SkyBlueMania]

on Betfair we're nearly 5/1 to win! They obviously don't think we're up to it after losing Turner and Platt! I just whacked 40 quid on so PLAY UP SKY BLUES!!!

 

[BenInTurin]

Just watched the highlights of the game...

I managed to listen to the first half and it sound pretty much all forest. The free kick for our goal was soft but the same can be said for theirs in the second half. We really need to start putting our chances away, there were at least 3 in the second half that should of been scored. It's for this reason that we're not turning out 2 or 3 goal victories.

Lets see what we can do against Palace at the weekend!
