During that encounter they had 54% possession and had 17 attempts on goal with 8 on target, while their opponents hit 7 of their 19 shots on goal.
Their boss Mark Robins has every reason to be happy with his side's attacking prowess of late, which has seen them net 12 goals in their last 6 matches; however, they may have some work to do in defence with 5 goals conceded across those matches. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 10 games in a row, and when playing at home this season, they've notched up 7 clean sheets in 13 games.
They have been performing well recently, both home and away, and remain unbeaten in their last 7 games.
Having scored 5 goals in his last 6 league games for Coventry City, Tatsuhiro Sakamoto will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Leicester City, Recent FormIn their last match Leicester City enforced their superiority over Huddersfield Town with a 4-1 home win. Their share of possession in that meeting was 74%, while racking up 19 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target. Huddersfield Town had 12 shots on goal with 4 on target.
Enzo Maresca will be very satisfied with his team's ability to find the net, with 16 goals in their last 6 matches; however, he will be less pleased with his back line, who have conceded 6 goals during those same matches. They've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games; however, this season they have scored in 12 of their 13 games on the road.
Their strong run of form, both away and at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 10 games in a row.
On an individual basis, Stephy Mavididi will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Leicester City's last 6 league games.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Leicester City that came out on top with a 2-1 win.
The Foxes will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against Coventry, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 7 meetings between the two.
Leicester has won the last 3 games they've played against Coventry in the league.
With no real injury worries, Coventry manager Mark Robins will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
With only Kasey McAteer (Unknown) and Jamie Vardy (Knock) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Enzo Maresca will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
