Your best bet is to make a backup of the iPad. Then, restore the iPad to iOS 7.1 using iTunes. At some point during the process, you will be asked whether you wish to restore as new or from a backup. Choose that new backup you just made and then iTunes will do its "magic."

I have done this process a number of times and have always had my game information (levels and such) where I left off. I can't guarantee it'll be the same for you - but I don't see why it wouldn't be.

From what I know if you only care about your CoC data then you don't need a back-up. Logging-in in Game Center will automatically download your progress, since data is stored in game center and its server based.

Thats correct. If you play logged-in to fame Center, your progress is backed up, and the game prompts you if you want to load your already saved game, or start a new one. I have synced this game on 3 devices using Game Center, so you can do it without any hesitation.
