Tigers to roar to victory
We would like to point out that Hull City have no wins in four road games this season; they've drawn two and lost two of those matches. In contrast, the Tigers have a perfect record at home so far, with two wins from two home games. To be fair, Coventry have only played three matches in all competitions this season; however, they are coming off back-to-back losses, with no wins in those three games. What's more? Coventry City allowed seven goals in their last two matches alone. All things considered, we believe that Hull City will maintain their 100% record at home today.
Going goal crazy
We've mentioned that Coventry have seen their defence breached seven times in their last two matches; because of the way they concede, most of Coventry's games tend to be on the high-scoring side. As a matter of fact, Mark Robins' men have seen at least three goals scored in five of their last seven matches. In like manner, Hull City have had their fair share of high-scoring games; nine of Hull City's last 11 matches went above the 2.5 goal mark. For these reasons, we are predicting a high-scoring affair.

Can Hull maintain early season form with another win?
It's been a strange start to the season where these two sides are concerned. Nobody – literally nobody – would have put Hull in the upper quartile of the league after five games and, as for Coventry their home games have just become a farce. Will that lack of games aid them or hinder them here?
Hull City are coming off a humiliating 5:2 defeat at the hands of West Bromwich Albion; in a match where they were dominant from start to finish, managing just 38 percent of the possession. As a result of that loss, the Tigers dropped to sixth on the Championship table, with eight points from five matches; they'll hope to bounce back from that disappointing loss as they host Coventry.
Hull City Predicted lineup – Ingram, Coyle, Figueiredo, Greaves, Elder, Jones, Slater, Williams, Tufan, Tetteh, Estupiñán
Unlike most Championship sides, Coventry City have played just two matches this season; that's because their first three home games were put on ice due to pitch issues. Even so, Coventry have not exactly fared well in three games across all competitions, with a draw and two losses; will they be able to get their first win of the season today?
Coventry City Predicted lineup – Moore, Hyam, McFadzean, Panzo, Dabo, Sheaf, Allen, Tavarez, Bidwell, Godden, Gyökeres
