Sheffield Wednesday 20th | Coventry City 5th (21)

Four defeats out of five for the Owls means that boss Howard Wilkinson is under pressure. A shuffled City take advantage. Kilcline, Borrows, Gynn and Regis are dropped and stand-in centre-half Graham Rodger plays well. McCall breaks his leg in an innocuous clash with Bennett.
