Bristol City hope to have Steven Caulker available after a hip injury.
Louis Carey is out after suffering a fractured skull and Jamie McAllister is still sidelined, so Jordan Spence is set for his full debut.
MATCH PREVIEW
Bristol City are yet to lose at the Ricoh Arena. They have thumped Coventry 3-0 on two of their last three visits there, and are hoping to extend their unbeaten away run against the Sky Blues to five matches.
And they head to the Midlands in good form. Keith Millen's side have won their last two matches, and a victory on Saturday would see them register three successive wins for only the second time this season.
Coventry are 18th - one place below the Robins - and are enduring a miserable run. They have won only one of their last 13 league matches, and have lost eight of them.
Their shortcomings in the final third of the pitch have been obvious. Coventry have had a whopping 425 attempts on goal in the league this season, but have scored only 36 times. It is the worst ratio in the Championship.
MATCH FACTS
Head-to-head
• Coventry have won 19 of the 58 matches between these clubs - one more than Bristol City.
• A win for Coventry would complete their first league 'double' over the Robins since 1963/64.
Coventry
• The Sky Blues have conceded one goal in each of their last four games.
• They are one of only three teams not to have scored more than three goals in a Championship match this term.
• A win for Coventry would see them accumulate their 1,300th point in the second tier.
Bristol City
• The Robins have gone seven matches without a draw.
• A draw would give them the club's 1,100th point in the second tier.
