Going to the heart of Championship action, Coventry City continued their impressive run under head coach Frank Lampard with a 2-1 away win against Portsmouth. This victory marked their fifth consecutive win and kept them as the only team in the Championship yet to suffer a defeat this season. Lampard praised his squad's attacking threat, noting that the team looked “dangerous every time we attacked” and believed they could have scored more than two goals.

The Coventry boss highlighted the importance of managing the playing minutes of key attacking players such as Haji Wright, Sakamoto, and Mason-Clark, emphasizing squad rotation despite the ongoing winning streak. Brandon Thomas-Asante stood out in the match, scoring both goals for Coventry, bringing his tally to five goals in three games. Lampard credited Thomas-Asante’s hard work, energy, and consistent performance since pre-season, noting that his dedication and talent had elevated him to a level that now draws public attention.
