Norwich City 19th | Coventry City 16th (22)

The Canaries have just lost 1-4 to fellow strugglers Palace and are revved up for this one. Leading scorer Fashanu is well marked but Royle and ex-City man Paddon expose City’s defence. There is a big improvement after the break but despite a host of chances City can’t rescue it.
