Coventry got the better of Watford courtesy of Viktor Gyokeres’ lone goal five minutes into the second half. It was the Sky Blues’ sixth league-win of the campaign. Although Mark Robins’ side remain one of the worst performing teams in attack, their clean sheet at Vicarage Road was their eighth in 12 games. As it Stands, Coventry are just three points clear of the relegation zone and eight adrift of playoffs.
As for Wigan, they are winless in their last six games. The Latics’ last victory came against Blackburn Rovers on October 12 courtesy of Nathan Broadhead’s lone goal in the 62nd minute. After that, Leam Richardson’s side suffered five consecutive defeats before sharing the spoils against Swansea last Saturday. Against the Swans, Will Keane and Tam Naylor netted in the first half to help Wigan earn a point at Liberty Stadium. Despite having failed to prevail in any of their recent away games, the Latics possess the sixth-best away record in the division.
