One game in Challenge Cup on Sunday night.

Neither Coventry nor Cardiff had the best Saturday night results, as both teams conceded six to Scottish opposition. The two sides however take a break from league action as they meet in the Challenge Cup.

The Devils lead Group B with an unbeaten start so far thanks to the midweek overtime win in Guildford. Coventry have only played one game in the cup, losing to the Flames last weekend, and so make their home debut in the competition looking to avoid back-to-back weekends with no points.

"We’re going to see a lot of Cardiff over the next few weeks. We know the challenge but we’re looking forward to it and this is a good test for us. Our home games are going to be crucial in the cup and we’re going to have to be at our best to get a result." - David Clements (Defenseman, Coventry Blaze)

"Everyone knows what happened the last time we came into this building, but it's a new season and of course these are the types of games we have to win if we're going to make it back into the Challenge Cup final again. We've seen Coventry pull off some good results so we know that we'll have to work very hard again." - Andrew Lord (Head Coach, Cardiff Devils)
