Grabbing a valuable league point from their recent 1-1 draw against Southampton will have been seen as a reasonably decent result for Rotherham United.  In that game they had 20% possession and managed 4 attempts on goal, with 2 on target, compared to Southampton who had 23 attempts and 10 on target.  

Having scored just 3 goals in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to their manager Matt Taylor where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table. Hoever, he will still have one eye on his defence which has shipped 11 in the same period.  They have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 11 games.  

Results wise, their recent poor run of form has left them without a win in 6 games.

The Coventry City squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 1-0 away defeat against Bristol City, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed.  Their share of possession in that meeting was 68%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 1 of which were on target. Bristol City had 6 shots on goal with 3 on target.  

They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 8 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 7 and seen valuable points lost.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.  

They've had a poor run of form on the road recently, losing 3 of their last 6 away games and managing only 1 win.  The early part of the season has provided an unusually high number of draws for The Sky Blues, with 6 draws in 12 league games.  

Matt Godden has scored 3 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Rotherham United.
