West Bromwich Albion host Coventry City in the Sky Bet Championship on Wednesday night (ko 8pm).

The Sky Blues, now managed by Frank Lampard, earned a positive result over the weekend, defeating Millwall 1-0 in the capital thanks to Ephron Mason-Clark's second-half effort.
Albion won both games against Wednesday's guests in 2023/24, claiming a 2-0 triumph away from home and a 2-1 victory in B71.

The visitors
Coventry City ended their five-match winless run by beating Millwall 1-0 at The Den on Saturday afternoon.
Ephron Mason-Clark's goal secured Frank Lampard his first victory as Sky Blues boss following his appointment at the end of November.
The former Chelsea and England star replaced Mark Robins at the CBS Arena, with Robins departing after more than seven years in what was his second spell at the club.
Lampard has taken over a team which has been sat in the bottom half of the division for the majority of the 2024/25 campaign so far. The Sky Blues have been play-off chasers in recent years and the 46-year-old will be determined to drive them up the division and potentially back into top-six contention with more than 25 fixtures left to play.
The visitors' boss has previous managerial experience at Derby County, Chelsea and Everton, taking charge of 198 matches.
Wednesday's guests have had a mixed bag of results in the second tier, winning five, drawing six and losing eight of their 19 encounters. They've proved difficult to beat over the last nine games, though, suffering just two defeats (D4, W3).
