Watford prepare to entertain Coventry City at Vicarage Road Stadium on Tuesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Hornets are clearly on top, having won 22 and lost only 8 of the 36 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Vicarage Road Stadium was less than a year ago, in December 2008, the Hornets carving out a narrow 2-1 victory in a Championship match.
