Swansea City will be hoping to extend their unbeaten run to three matches when they welcome Coventry City to the Liberty Stadium on Friday afternoon in the Championship. The Swans secured a dramatic victory over arch rivals Cardiff City last time out, whilst the Sky Blues’ playoff dreams took a significant blow at home to Stoke City.
Swansea’s faltering campaign has enjoyed a mini revival over the past three weeks, with back-to-back wins for the Welsh club all but securing their second-tier status for next term. Russell Martin’s men had a Derby Day to remember on Saturday against the Bluebirds of Cardiff, with a 99th-minute winner from defender Ben Cabango sending the travelling Swansea supporters into delirium at the Cardiff City Stadium.
Couple that win with a 2-0 success over Bristol City just before the international break and the Swans have enjoyed a productive last month, with the club having won more matches in their last two games than they had in their previous 10. Sitting 15th in the Championship standings and 10 points ahead of the relegation zone, another maximum on Friday would surely seal Swansea’s safety this season – Martin will be hoping his charges can get their survival business done sooner rather than later in the remaining seven games.

Swansea vs Coventry Team News
Swansea will be without first-choice goalkeeper Steven Benda for the remainder of the campaign following a serious cruciate ligament injury in January, with Andy Fisher set to deputise once again in this one. Luke Cundle was substituted at half time in the win at Cardiff last time out and could be dropped for this match, with Jay Fulton potentially partnering Matt Grimes and Liam Walsh in the Swans midfield.
Coventry could make some changes after their disappointing defeat to Stoke on Saturday, with Michael Rose a possible replacement for Kyle McFadzean in the centre of the hosts’ back three. Jamie Allen could return to the Sky Blues side in this match after stepping up his recovery from a calf injury – the midfielder may join Gustavo Hamer and Ben Sheaf in the Coventry engine room.
