We said: Coventry City 1-0 Cardiff City

Coventry have been inconsistent of late, but a constant of their season has been the excellent performances of talisman Gyokeres - even when the rest of the team are not shining as bright as Robins would want. Cardiff seem to be waiting for that turning point in their campaign, but with a short turnaround to this fixture, we do not see a successful evening for Hudson's men in the Midlands on Thursday.
