Mark Robins has made just one change from Wednesday night’s pulsating cup tie with Tottenham as Coventry City get back to Championship action against Swansea this afternoon.

Oliver Dovin is restored in goal in place of Ben Wilson as the Sky Blues boss keeps faith with the outfield players who performed so well against Premier League Spurs

There’s good news regarding skipper Ben Sheaf, who is fit enough to be named on the bench again as he attempts to return to regular football for the first time this season.

That means that the back four sees Milan van Ewijk and Jake Bidwell deployed at right and left full-back, respectively, while Bobby Thomas and Luis Binks continue as the central defensive partnership.

Josh Eccles keeps the captain’s armband alongside Jamie Allen in the deeper midfield roles while Jack Rudoni is once again deployed in the number ten role with Brandon Thomas-Asante to his right and Haji Wright to the left of the forward three. That leaves the pacy Norman Bassette to continue to lead the line in place of Ellis Simms, who is one of a number of attacking options on the bench.

Robins can also call on Tatsuhiro Sakamoto and Ephron Mason-Clark if he needs to pep things up later on in the game.

City: Oliver Dovin; Milan van Ewijk, Bobby Thomas, Luis Binks, Jake Bidwell; Josh Eccles, Jamie Allen; Brandon Thomas-Asante, Jack Rudoni, Haji Wright; Norman Bassette.

Subs: Ben Wilson (GK), Jay Dasilva, Liam Kitching, Tatsuhiro Sakamoto, Ellis Simms, Ephron Mason-Clark, Ben Sheaf, Joel Latibeaudiere, Victor Torp.
