Coventry City vs Hull City: Preview
Coventry City have laid trust in Frank Lampard to hopefully guide the Sky Blues to Premier League safety after winning the Championship last season.
Starts don't come as tough as at the home of the current champions; however, with Lampard's side beaten 3-0 and outclassed on the whole.
They did progress to the next round of the Carabao Cup in midweek, beating League One outfit Plymouth Argyle 4-2.
The Sky Blues will have to be much better and there is often a common them that promoted sides who win their home games are much better placed to avoid the drop, and getting off the mark against Hull would allay those fears.

Hull City. Written off before a ball was kicked and yet worthy winners against Manchester United on the opening day of the season.
Goals from Semi Ajayi and Nobel Mendy in the first half meant the Red Devils were mocked with chants of 'Mauled by the Tigers' as their trains back to the north-west were also cancelled from Yorkshire.
City defended well in a back five for most of the second half and, just like Coventry, progressed in the Carabao Cup in midweek, albeit on penalties against Stoke City.
Mohamed-Ali Cho and Ilyas Ansah are both expected to join Hull in the next seven days, but they won't be ready for Saturday's trip to Coventry.
FourFourTwo's prediction
Coventry City 2-1 Hull City
Coventry finished 22 points above Hull last season and I think Lampard's men get a first win of the season in this clash.
