NEWS: Sky Blues face Sunderland Opening Day

City will travel to the Stadium of Light...

23 June 2022

The Sky Blues will face Sunderland at the Stadium of Light on the opening day of the 2022/23 Championship season.

Mark Robins side will take on the Black Cats live on Sky Sports on Sunday 31st July, with kick-off scheduled for 12pm.

Sunderland return to the Championship after winning the League One Play-Off Final against Wycombe Wanderers.

It will be the first time the two side have met since Matty Godden's goal was enough to secure a 1-0 win back in March 2020.

Elsewhere, City's first home fixture will see them entertain the League One runners-up Rotherham United at the Coventry Building Society Arena.
