Huddersfield Town, on the other hand, are missing key players due to injury, including Jonathan Hogg and Josh Koroma. Manager Carlos Corberan has impressed as the Terriers boss, but will have to be careful with his team given the hectic schedule ahead.

Prediction: Coventry City 1-1 Huddersfield Town
