Set pieces will be key for us last 2 games we have gone from looking awful at them to looking a real force...they are a well oiled outfit but I fancy us to beat them in a tight game.

Same team do we think?

Wonder how far Jones is off playing more than a cameo

Fancy us to click going forward again and would be good to think given a week of no games that fitness levels will mean a push for 90 mins

Hate predictions but can certainly see us continuing our winning run

2-1 Chaplin and Thomas

Can see it being the same team as long as there's no injuries.

5-0 City. Luke Thomas has got that monkey off his shoulders and will get at least one, as will JCH. Another one for CC and the usual one for Hiwula. Not sure who will get the fifth.

Finally move into the play-offs, but it is the automatics we are after.

I can't see us losing again this season.

At this stage of the season it is just another game

I dont expect CCFC to lose but it is going to be a tight game. Neither team give much away defensively and neither team are big scorers

1 : 1

We definitely owe them.

One good think is they’ll be no surprises-they’re doing the same thing they did last year.

Teams underestimate them and they nick games one nill.

Robins will know what they’re all about and prepare for them accordingly.

We’ve toughened up because of our season in league 2 and the up and under teams don’t scare us anymore.

I feel that we have pace all over our team and that frightens anyone.

I honestly believe we have too much for Accrington and expect us to win.

Not saying it won’t be tough but our team are technically better and now seem to have matched that with a brilliant team ethos and a never say die attitude.

No reason we can’t beat them. Turn up and play like the last five games. Confidence should be high.

I think we are much more "streetwise" now.

Still want to see an early challenge to set the tone.

You know it. Last year we gave them too much respect.

Davies used to play for them so I can't see him wiping Billy Kee out as I "think" they are mates.

Anything that has that effect is probably unaffordable.
If offered I would take a point now. They'll score so 1-1.

Don’t think Davies has any mates during the game, might have a drink with them after.
Just as it should be.

Very naive. They absolutely schooled us home and away last season, and are above us in the league on merit. While I would be delighted with the win, the job that John Coleman is doing at Accrington shouldn't be underestimated in any way. This won't be easy by any stretch.

Took my Little boy to his first ever Coventry game last year and unfortunately picked this one. He was underwhelmed to say the least (at the time I remember thinking better to set his expectations early on) then we went on a mad run. Anyway I'm going for a 1-1 draw and both goals headers. PUSB

You'd have been better taking him to any other game where 1, the team would have played better and 2, the people in the stands weren't there to abuse them.

If the 1st half side against Donny turn up we will win 3-1.
If The 2nd half side turn up we will lose 1-3

The team play much better with support and encouragement from the terraces, no boos or rediculous SISU out protests, which have cost us points.

The guys in front of me was telling Bayliss how shit he is after 5 minutes. I understand dissatisfaction with that performance but abusing our rising young star who's had a hell of a breakout few games after 5 minutes was unacceptable.

"you're fucking shit mate"
"Get him off he's fucking useless"
"He's not fit to wear the shirt"

Same cretins that would have been outraged if we'd sold him over the summer.
