I notice Mark Lawrenson has predicted us to lose to Coventry City tomorrow on the BBC sport website. He probably is right this time though.
Looking at the game objectively without knowing the ins and outs you're going to see a team struggling at the bottom of the Championship where the league is the priority against a team with not much else to play for from the league below. Personally I reckon we'll see a changed line-up with players who are no worse than what have been playing the last few months (ie those who have come back off loan) but with a point to prove. I'm guessing Stoke would rather Brek Shea didn't get cup tied but if he plays he seems a real threat from what I've heard about Wednesday's game as well.
