Watford prepare to entertain Coventry City at Vicarage Road on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Hornets are clearly on top, having won 19 and lost only 7 of the 32 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Vicarage Road was just last season, in October 2003, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a League Division One match.
