Looking ahead to his side facing Coventry City on Saturday afternoon, Daniel Farke addressed the media at Thorp Arch earlier this week.

There are fitness doubts around a number of the squad, with a team news update available HERE.

Farke is looking forward to facing the Sky Blues in fixture number seven of the Sky Bet Championship campaign, coming up against a manager he states has a lot of experience at this level.

“I'm totally convinced of the quality of Mark [Robins, Coventry City manager] because I always rate him as a top manager in this division,” Farke began.

“He has so much experience and also when I judge what he's doing, he more or less always delivers nearly each and every season. He is a really quality manager.

“Also, when I judge Coventry, I think what he has done, he has developed this club into a club who always comes close to promotion to the Premier League.

“So they finished either in the top six, even in the play-off final, or close to the top six.

“I’m full of respect and I'm pretty sure they will also be one of the competitors in order to finish on the top six.

“I'm not distracted by perhaps - I wouldn't label it a poor start - but in terms of a league position, of course they want to be in a better position.

"But I'm 100 per cent sure they will do the same, they develop the squad and Mark with his quality will develop the squad.

“Then they’ll finish in a really good position, so I expect a difficult game for us."
