While things are not going well for Chelsea at the minute, the same cannot be said about Coventry City, who are now being managed by Blues legend Frank Lampard.

Frank Lampard has just guided Coventry City to another win in the Championship following their 2-1 victory over Preston North End on Saturday.

The Sky Blues have now won seven of their last eight league games, showing what an incredible job the Chelsea legend is doing at the Coventry Building Society Arena.

His former club, in contrast, have won just two of their past eight league fixtures following their loss to Aston Villa.

It was not their worst performance of the season. But some Chelsea players really struggled on the evening, including Malo Gusto.

Coventry end dreadful run against Preston under Frank Lampard

Coventry’s victory over Preston was a big one as Lampard’s men look to make it into the play-offs.

However, it was also a significant win because it was the first time that the Sky Blues managed to beat Preston in the league in 17-and-a-half years.

Jack Rudoni got Coventry on their way when he scored half an hour into the game before Bobby Thomas gave the home side a comfy 2-0 lead seven minutes later.

Will Keane grabbed a goal for Preston in the 82nd minute to deny Lampard’s team a clean sheet, but they managed to hold on and win the game, ending that terrible streak.

Some Chelsea fans want Lampard in their dugout again, with Enzo Maresca struggling to turn things around at Stamford Bridge.

His side, though, are level on points with Bournemouth in fifth, and fifth place could be enough to guarantee Champions League football next season.

Frank Lampard previously ended horrific 75-year run against Swansea City

This is not the first time that Lampard has halted a terrible run as Coventry manager.

At the start of the month, Coventry beat Swansea City 2-0 at the Swansea.com Stadium. It was their first win away at Swansea in 75 years.

Chelsea are on some terrible runs themselves right now. It has been a while since the Blues have beaten Manchester City, for example.

It would be nice to see Maresca change that next term. But with Pep Guardiola’s men not at their best this season, it feels like Chelsea have missed an opportunity, losing both of their fixtures against the Premier League champions.
