First-place Coventry continued their outstanding winning streak with a commanding three-one performance against a player-down their opponents.
Quick Strikes Set the Tone
The home side's squad started to a perfect beginning with Brandon Thomas-Asante and Jamie Allen netting the target within the first seven minutes.
The Japanese winger made it a three-goal lead just before half-time, while the visitors' player was sent off before the half.
Watford Manage a Late Goal
The midfielder netted a penalty for the losing team, but it was nothing more than a meaningless strike.
Their keeper the keeper had before denied a one-on-one opportunity for Rocco Vata, which could have swung the contest early on.
The Coventry boss commented: “That was a difficult game this afternoon because Watford are a good side.”
Ipswich Get Back to Winning Ways
Jack Clarke was introduced from the substitutes to fire the only strike in a one-nil victory over West Brom.
The home side controlled the play but only found the goalless draw late thanks to his 5th goal of the season.
West Brom thought they had netted in injury time, but the header was disallowed for a foul in the area.
The Potters Grab Close Win at Fratton Park
