After losing at last season's champions Arsenal on Friday night, attention turns to more winnable fixtures, especially those in front of a home faithful who have waited 25 years to see their team play a top-flight fixture in Coventry.
BBC CWR's Will Oelrich spoke to some of the Sky Blue Army on the Fancast about their thoughts on the opening-day defeat and their perspective on how this season can be a success going forward.
"People are getting a bit ahead of themselves with the fact that Hull City won their first game against Manchester United , but they looked poor, and we witnessed that in the semi-final of the FA Cup a few years ago," said Coventry fan Ryan.
"We have to, as a club, realise that we're playing the two best teams in the league away from home in the first two away games of the season. The atmosphere will be electric in the CBS Arena [on Saturday]. We need to be realistic and make our home ground a fortress.
"Seven of them [the 10 opening-weekend Premier League games] have been won by the home team. It highlights the fact that Coventry need to win their home games, and I think that's what Coventry need to take into their home games.
"It's going to be buzzing at the CBS Arena. A win against Hull and we're going to be three points off the top of the table."
