Leeds United can continue to prove they didn’t need any January signings when they take on Coventry City this week.

There had been hope Leeds United would sign Cameron Archer on transfer deadline day to bring their January transfer window to life at the death.

It wasn’t to be with Daniel Farke not adding any new players to his squad while Sheffield United and Burnley strengthened massively.

Leeds have reason to be confident, though, given they sit at the top of the Championship table and thrashed Cardiff City 7-0 on Saturday.

Next up is a revived Coventry City under old foe Frank Lampard and here is everything you need to know about the fixture.

Farke has a near-fully fit squad to choose from for the game after Pascal Struijk made his return to action last weekend.

Patrick Bamford is the only player unavailable as the striker’s knee issues continue. Farke said: “Patrick is the only one missing.”

Predictions

Coventry have enjoyed an upturn in form under new manager Lampard, having won their last four Championship fixtures and are slowly climbing up the table.

However, Leeds are still an extremely superior side and should win fairly comfortably.

Prediction: Coventry 0-2 Leeds.
