"Coventry were served up a couple of shockers by getting Arsenal and Manchester City as their first two away fixtures, and this trip is far from easy for them either. In fact, this is another stinker of a game for Sky Blues boss Frank Lampard, because they are still struggling while Oliver Glasner seems to be getting Nottingham Forest going after a slow burner of a start. There is a strong chance Coventry's confidence has been sapped already so Lampard will be trying to rally the troops and give his players some belief they can compete at this level.
"Newcastle United seek a first home league win of the season as they face high-flying Hull City, the only team to play at St James' Park more than once in the Premier League and never lose (W2, D1). Throughout Newcastle's unbeaten five-match start to the season, it was evident that this vibrant young team is, as is the nature of any rebuild, a work in progress. Matthias Jaissle's side had been defying some underlying metrics in the opening three league games, which made their positive start to the season look unsustainable.

Nottingham Forest answered Oliver Glasner's call to find the "final bit missing" when they deservedly beat Aston Villa last weekend.
