Weekend team news from Highfield Road between Coventry and Bradford.
Coventry v Bradford at Highfield Road ko - 15-00 Sky Blues News Coventry City loan signing Matt Jansen
should make his Sky Blues debut in the home game with Bradford. The Blackburn striker signed in time to
play in last week's match at Rotherham but missed the game for personal
reasons. Julian Joachim could be handed a place on
the bench after coming through 45 minutes of reserve-team football in his latest
comeback bid after a string of injuries. Midfielder Youssef Chippo returns from a
one-match ban for a red card, but John Eustace is suspended for collecting five
bookings. Bantams News Lewis Emanuel missed the game last weekend
with a hamstring problem but is likely to be named in Nicky Law's squad. Defenders David Wetherall (hamstring) and
Andy Myers (hernia) are well on the way to recovery, but both need more match
practice before they can return to first-team action. Jamie Lawrence is to have a face mask
constructed to protect his fractured cheekbone, but the trip to Highfield Road
will come too soon for the midfielder. One To Watch Matt
