'This is Lampard's moment to finish the job'

BBC CWR's Will Oelrich on Coventry City aiming to follow their promotion by sealing the Championship title on Tuesday.

Coventry City fans have waited a generation for nights like this. It has been 25 long years since the Sky Blues last graced the top flight, and now with promotion sealed, it's all eyes on the Championship title. All that separates them from glory is one final hurdle - Portsmouth.

And they get to face it at a near sold out CBS Arena - a stadium which has become a fortress under Frank Lampard. Lampard's home record has been incredible. The Sky Blue Army will pack every corner of the ground, ready to push their team over the line.

But this won't be a coronation stroll. Portsmouth arrive in the Midlands with fire in their boots and survival on their minds. Their last eight days have been nothing short of season‑defining.

Victories over promotion chasers Ipswich and Middlesbrough, followed by a statement win against Leicester. A five‑game unbeaten run at the business end of the season is the kind of form that drags teams out of trouble and they know one more scalp would secure their safety. Still, this is Lampard's moment.
