Portsmouth 16th | Coventry City 7th (22)

Pompey are reeling from a 4-5 defeat to Birmingham and are no match for a fresher Gibson-inspired City. Classy Gibbo makes both goals, a Clements header and Gould’s vicious shot. Curtis muffs two chances for a rout. Glazier shows his class but Rees and Pointer are off-form.
