Coventry City prepare to entertain Preston North End at Coventry Arena on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Sky Blues are clearly on top, having won 6 and lost only 2 of the 11 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Coventry Arena was just last season, in April 2006, with Preston N.E. inflicting a narrow 0-1 defeat upon the Sky Blues in a Championship match.
