Manchester United 11th | Coventry City 12th (22)

After their great start, United have been stuttering for a while and are there for the taking. City don’t take advantage, lacking penetration up front. Dugdale’s clearing header is deflected in off Macari for the first goal. Martin Buchan cuffs team-mate Hill around the ear for not trying.
