Coventry City face a trip to Stoke City at Britannia Stadium on Monday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Sky Blues will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in April 2006, with Coventry City inflicting a narrow 0 - 1 defeat upon the Potters in a Championship match.
