Table-toppers extended their remarkable victory sequence with a commanding three-one performance against ten-man Watford.
The Coventry manager's team began to a ideal beginning with their striker and Jamie Allen scoring the goal within the first seven minutes.
The Japanese winger made it a 3-0 advantage just before the break, while James Abankwah was sent off before the break.
Imran Louza netted a second-half for the away squad, but it was nothing more than a consolation strike.
The home side's goalkeeper Carl Rushworth had previously blocked a golden opportunity for Rocco Vata, which could have altered the game early on.
The Coventry boss commented: “That was a tough game this afternoon because the opposition are a strong side.”
Jack Clarke was introduced from the sideline to score the decisive strike in a 1-0 win over the visitors.
They commanded the match but only broke the deadlock late thanks to Clarke's 5th goal of the campaign.
Ryan Mason's side thought they had netted in added time, but the effort was ruled out for a foul in the area.
A Portsmouth defender scored a late own strike to give Mark Robins' team a 1-0 victory.
Portsmouth have currently managed just one match since the end of August.
Mark Robins remarked: “It was one of the most important wins we’ve had this campaign.”
