Coventry Secure Sixth Successive Triumph Against Watford
Table-toppers continued their outstanding unbeaten run with a commanding three to one scoreline against ten-man their opponents.
Quick Goals Set the Pace
Frank Lampard's lineup began to a flying start with Brandon Thomas-Asante and the midfielder scoring the back of the net within the first seven minutes.
Another Coventry attacker added a 3-0 advantage just before half-time, while the visitors' player was dismissed before the half.
Javi Gracia's team Score a Second-Half Strike
A Watford player scored a spot-kick for the losing squad, but it proved nothing more than a consolation effort.
Coventry's goalkeeper Carl Rushworth had earlier blocked a one-on-one chance for Rocco Vata, which could have changed the game early on.
The Coventry boss commented: “It was a challenging game today because they are a good side.”
Ipswich Bounce Back to Winning Ways
Jack Clarke was introduced from the bench to score the decisive strike in a 1-0 victory over the Baggies.
The home side dominated the match but only found the goalless draw near the end thanks to Clarke's fifth strike of the season.
The away team thought they had netted in added time, but the header was ruled out for a infringement in the box.
The Potters Snatch Close Win at Portsmouth
The home player turned a unfortunate own goal to hand the visitors a narrow win.
Portsmouth have at present won just one match since the end of August.
Mark Robins remarked: “That was one of the vital victories we’ve had this campaign.”
