**Sergej Jakirovic** wants **[Hull City](/en/data/hull-city/)** to continue the good feeling from last week against **Manchester United** as they prepare to travel to the **CBS Arena** for their first away day in the **Premier League**.
The _Tigers_ mauled the Mancunian outfit 2-0 last Saturday afternoon, scoring twice from set-pieces and stopping open play threat for most of the fixture. They have been touted to drop back down to the **Championship**, having got promotion through the playoffs, but the underdog tag is fuelling their fire.
·**‘We want to prove everybody wrong’**
---------------------------------------
A battle between two promoted teams carries a different weight to the neutral than the David and Goliath clash from the opening matchday, but Jakirovic is still approaching his job the same way.
_"I enjoy very much \[being in the_ **_Premier League_**_.\] Still, for me, this is football and I am just doing my job. It is a great motivation for me that I can show my potential and we can be competitive and play against much bigger teams. We want to prove everybody wrong and that we are on a good way._
_"Of course we are underdogs. We spent £144m in transfer market. Who is close to us? Coventry spent £260m/£270m. It's normal, but still money doesn't play. That is always my opinion. I never see money scoring the goal, it is players. As a team, we can be dangerous and competitive._
_"We know Coventry from our games in the_ **_Championship_**_. I'm expecting a very demanding game as it's their first home game back in 25 years and it will be a full stadium. It will be difficult but also, we have our plan, we will try to perform good there and try to take something._
_"They added more quality in some positions. They are human beings and they need some time for adaptation, like our players. I am expecting them to grow every game like my team. For us, every new game is a new experience. I expect they will already be better than the game against_ **_Arsenal_**_.”_
