Weekend Review - 23rd January

Richard Keogh's Coventry City earned a great victory over high flying Middlesbrough on Saturday. It was a much needed win for the Sky Blues as they looked like being cut adrift at the foot of the Championship. Coventry will now look to build on that result in the coming weeks and hopefully begin to climb the table to safety.

Lloyd Dyer's Leicester City were in action live on Sky Sports on Monday night. They travelled to St Mary's to take on top of the table Southampton in a very entertaining encounter. City came away with all three points thanks to a comfortable 2-0 win. The result leaves Leicester five points outside the play off places but after this result confidence will be high and a play off push is now a strong possibility for Lloyd and his Leicester City team mates
