It looks, on paper, an away banker at the CBS Arena on Saturday.
Mark Robins' Coventry City, on the back of four straight defeats, up against Alex Neil's Stoke City, who are unbeaten in their last four, including three successive clean sheets.
But then it was the same sort of thought process last season when Stoke arrived at the CBS Arena, having failed to win their previous two home games, to face a Sky Blues side unbeaten in nine.
End result: 0-4. A bad home defeat. And yet another reminder of one of the oldest football clichés in the book - that often "form goes out of the window in a derby game".
