Views from CoventryLive on Coventry City as Sky Blues reporter Andy Turner anticipates the challenge this weekend as the Championship team attempts to defeat Premier League Wolves.
They then came agonizingly close in the fourth round of 2022, forcing Southampton into extra time while putting on a magnificent display that kept them in close company throughout. And before Saturday’s match, supporters of the Sky Blues will be aware that, should they perform at their peak on the day, they stand a good chance of making it to the semifinals and adding another chapter to the club’s contemporary history.
It seems like a good time to play Wolves, who, despite their recent success, are full of confidence. However, they are likely to be missing two of their best players, Pedro Neto and Jean-Ricner Bellegarde, which will leave O’Neil with just Pablo Sarabia, their senior forward. Not that they don’t have enough of youthful talent to cover, but in a game of narrow margins, every little bit counts.
City will undoubtedly rise to the occasion, as each player is eager to put himself to the test against elite Premier League players and to give it their best in front of what promises to be an electrifying crowd in which the Sky Blue Army will play a major role. In the meantime, the home crowd will undoubtedly believe that their team will triumph. But it is risky for anyone to write off Robins’ guys.
The team wants to play Premier League football, and a win would give the players more confidence that they can advance to the play-offs and possibly face their rivals in the big leagues. However, all we can hope for is a performance in which everyone feels proud, and we’ll see where it goes from there. All that anyone can ask for is that they fight.
