Coventry Secure Sixth Consecutive Triumph Versus The Hornets
Table-toppers continued their remarkable unbeaten run with a decisive three-one result against a player-down Watford.
Quick Scores Set the Pace
Frank Lampard's lineup got off to a flying start with their striker and the midfielder finding the target within the initial minutes.
Tatsuhiro Sakamoto made it a three-goal advantage just before the break, while the visitors' player was dismissed before the break.
Javi Gracia's team Manage a Second-Half Strike
The midfielder netted a spot-kick for the losing squad, but it turned out to be nothing more than a consolation effort.
Coventry's shot-stopper Carl Rushworth had before denied a golden chance for Rocco Vata, which could have changed the match early on.
The Coventry boss commented: “This was a challenging match this afternoon because they are a strong team.”
The Tractor Boys Bounce Back to Winning Ways
Jack Clarke came off the bench to net the lone strike in a narrow success over the visitors.
The home side commanded the game but only secured the goalless draw late thanks to the winger's fifth goal of the season.
West Brom thought they had netted in stoppage time, but the effort was disallowed for a infringement in the box.
The Potters Secure Close Win at Portsmouth
Hayden Matthews turned a late mistake to give Stoke a one-zero result.
Portsmouth have now secured just one fixture since the end of the summer.
The Stoke manager remarked: “It was one of the vital victories we’ve secured this season.”
