THE PREDICTION

Despite proving much tougher to beat, Nottingham Forest have yet to really show a real resurgence under new manager Chris Hughton. After suffering their first defeat under Hughton away at Middlesbrough at the weekend, Forest will be under pressure to bounce back against Coventry. However, the Sky Blues have had a day’s extra rest and are riding the crest of a wave following their 3-2 victory over Reading last Friday night. Forest though, do have by far the stronger squad on paper and despite having less time to prepare than their opponents, are expected to prove strong enough to edge past Mark Robins’ men in this game.
