For defending champions Arsenal, it's been three months since their last Premier League outing. For Coventry City, the wait has been just over 25 years.
The 2026–27 season gets underway with a meeting between one of the top flight's most established clubs and a long-awaited returnee this Friday, as Coventry make the trip to the Emirates Stadium for their much-anticipated homecoming match.
Mikel Arteta's side showed their quality in last weekend's traditional season opener, dismantling Manchester City 3–0 in the Community Shield to send an early statement. The Sky Blues claimed the Championship title last season, but Frank Lampard and his squad now face a completely different challenge at the highest level.
