Last updated : 24 February 2006 By Covsupport

Coventry City look to keep their good home run going as they entertain Burnley FC at the Arena (3pm)

Robert Page is back for Micky Adams side but defender Adie Williams and striker Gary McSheffrey are suspended. Richard Shaw and Marcus Hall have both trained this week and could be in the squad.

Burnley boss Steve Cotterill who has worked with Micky Adams and played with Alan Cork and Dennis Wise at Wimbledon is with out the suspended Wayne Thomas and John McCreal and has a doubt over Gareth O’Connor who has a knee injury. Frank Sinclair is available.

This is the 38th meeting between the two clubs and will be refereed by Eddie Ilderton . City have won only on eight occasions and drawn ten. The last defeat City suffered at the hands of the Clarets was back in August when City lost 4-0 at Turf Moor and had Stephen Hughes sent off.

Tickets are available. As with most home games lately, you can expect Coventry City Council parking wardens out on the streets, so make sure you park either in a car park or well away from the no parking zone.

There is a road closure order which has come into effect around the Arena. Rowleys Green Road, Cornonel Ave and Judds Lane will be close from 2pm until 6pm for a afternoon kick off. Access will be for permit holders only with all vehicles held back for approximately fifteen minutes after the final whistle to allow pedestrians to leave safely.

City U18’s are at home to Watford. Kick off at the Alan Higgs Centre is at 11am, whilst on Sunday, Coventry City Ladies travel to Rotherham for a Midland Women’s Combination fixture.
