Coventry Notch Sixth Straight Win Versus The Hornets
League leaders prolonged their impressive unbeaten run with a decisive 3-1 result against a player-down their opponents.
Rapid Scores Pave the Tone
Frank Lampard's team started to a ideal beginning with their striker and the midfielder finding the back of the net within the opening minutes.
Another Coventry attacker made it a three-goal advantage just before the break, while James Abankwah was dismissed before the break.
Watford Get a Late Goal
A Watford player netted a spot-kick for the visiting side, but it turned out to be nothing more than a meaningless effort.
Their goalkeeper the keeper had before blocked a one-on-one opportunity for the winger, which could have altered the contest early on.
The Coventry boss commented: “It was a challenging fixture now because the opposition are a strong side.”
Ipswich Return to Winning Form
An Ipswich player was introduced from the bench to score the lone strike in a 1-0 victory over West Brom.
They controlled the game but only found the goalless draw near the end thanks to Clarke's 5th strike of the season.
Ryan Mason's side thought they had netted in added time, but the effort was ruled out for a infringement in the area.
Steven Schumacher's Team Snatch Narrow Win at Portsmouth
Hayden Matthews headed a second-half mistake to present the visitors a narrow result.
The home side have now won just one match since the end of last month.
The Stoke manager said: “That was among the most important successes we’ve achieved this season.”
