History of the Coventry City v Wolverhampton Wanderers fixture

Wolves face a trip to Coventry City at Coventry Arena on Monday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Wolves will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in April 2005, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2 - 2 draw in a Championship match.
