THREE consecutives wins and 11 goals along the way have booked the Sky Blues a deserved place in the knockout stage of the revamped Checkatrade Trophy.
Mark Venus’ side finished top of Southern Group D thanks to comfortable victories over West Ham Under-23s, Northampton and Wycombe.
Their most recent success came down at Adams Park where the Sky Blues came from 2-0 down to win 4-2 thanks to goals from Academy trio Ryan Haynes (2), George Thomas and Gael Bigirimana.
A place in the last 16 is up for grabs when the Sky Blues host Crawley Town on December 7. Crawley are coming into the game off the back of a heavy defeat at the hands of Southampton, and will be aiming to put things right at the Ricoh Arena.
