Arsenal v Coventry City: Premier League – live

The Premier League is back, and you won’t get too many people making a case for newly promoted Coventry City to get something in tonight’s opening game against champions Arsenal. But then on the first day of the 1993-94 season, Micky Quinn did this …

… and there weren’t too many at Highbury expecting that either. Throw in that Lee Dixon own goal, the centrepiece of another early-season away win for Cov, this time in 1991-92 with Arsenal reigning champions, and the Sky Blues have some disruptive form here. On the other hand, that was over 30 years ago, and Arsenal have won all five of the meetings between these clubs in the 21st century, albeit the last of those being in 2014. So take your pick as the champions of England meet the winners of the Championship. Kick-off is at 8pm BST. It’s back, and it’s on!
