Last updated : 07 November 2018 By CNS Sport

Coventry City need to win at Cheltenham Town on Tuesday if they are to progress to the Round Of 32 of the Checkatrade Trophy (EFL Trophy).

Tonight, Arsenal booked their place in the Round Of 32 with a 3-1 win away to Forest Green Rovers in a Southern Section Group E fixture.

At The New Lawn, in front of a crowd of 1,602, Joe Willock gave Arsenal the lead with a 41st minute penalty and two minutes later, ran through to score a second goal.

Forest Green pulled a goal back in the 62nd minute through Grubb, who fired into the far corner of the net before Tyreece John-Jules scored in the 85th minute to send Arsenal through with the Sky Blues, if they are up for it, needing a win at Cheltenham Town to join them.
