History of the Coventry City v Queens Park Rangers fixture

Q.P.R. travel to take on Coventry City at Highfield Road Stadium on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Rangers will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 24 and win only 8 of the 46 games.

The last time the two teams met at Coventry City was back in April 1996, over five years ago, the Sky Blues carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a Premiership match.
