The Sky Blues have been knocking on the door of the Premier League over the last couple of seasons, as they have been pushing hard for promotion from the second tier.
Two seasons ago, they came agonisingly close, but fell short in the play-off final via a penalty shootout, so they have since had a chip on their shoulder as they battle for that long-awaited promotion.
Mark Robins has done an exceptional job with Coventry, so the expectation for this season was to be in and among the promotion hopefuls once again, but unfortunately, that does not look like the case early on.

From their first five league games, they have managed just one win, which came at home to newly-promoted Oxford United via a late winner. Aside from that, it has been two draws and two losses in a rather forgettable start to the season.
Panic will not creep in straight away, but already they appear to be below expectations and some distance from the top three in the table.
The Sky Blues are not scoring as many goals as they would like to be scoring, which could come down to a lack of creativity. Two players that they wish they could still see play for Coventry are Callum O’Hare and Gustavo Hamer. The pair now play at Bramall Lane for Sheffield United, and enjoyed a positive weekend, unlike their former club, Coventry.
