Arsenal v Coventry City Preview - Head to Head

Here's a look back at some of our past meetings with Arse.

City last went to the Emirates in the 4th Round of the FA Cup in Jan 2014. They lost 4-0 with Piers Morgan tweeting half way through "This is easy". Way to stay humble Piers. One look at our starting 11 shows just how far we have come, that line up was unrecognisable even a few years later.

If you really want to watch the highlights they are HERE.

The previous visit was a 6-2 defeat in the League Cup in September 2012. If you are a glutton for punishment those highlights are HERE.

City lost both games to Arse in the relegation season of 2000/1. In September 2000 they went down 2-1 , Hadji's late free kick giving some false hope.In the return fixture in Feb 2001, Dennis Bergkamp scored the only goal with 12 minutes to go.

Lets move on to more enjoyable past meetings! An all time classic PL game was the 3-2 Boxing Day win in 1999 in front of the Sky cameras. Macca, Hadji and a sublime flick from Robbie Keane gave City 3 points. If you've never seen this game I can't recommend it enough. The highlights are below but the full game is HERE

Finally, the opening day win at Arse from 1993 with Micky Quinn's hat trick has been mentioned a lot recently. Its arguably City's greatest opening day result. Blimey Micky Quinn could finish. Enjoy.
