Why Tottenham Hotspur are favourites
The bookmakers favour the hosts: a Tottenham Hotspur win is offered at odds of 1.47, implying a probability of around 65% without the margin. The draw is available at 4.70, while a Coventry City win is at 6.50.
• Coventry City have struggled defensively at the start of the season: after six Premier League matches, they sit 14th and have conceded 11 goals.
• Tottenham Hotspur are 19th in the table with three goals scored, but they have potential — their xG stands at 7.85.
• In the teams' most recent meeting, in September 2024, Tottenham Hotspur won 2:1 in Coventry in the EFL Cup.
Form and Line-up Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham Hotspur's league results have been inconsistent so far: after a 2:3 home defeat to Aston Villa, they snatched a 1:1 draw away to Manchester United. At Old Trafford, they were reduced to ten men when Rodrigo Bentancur was sent off, but Dominic Solanke equalised in the 92nd minute. Roberto De Zerbi's side are still without a win.
Tottenham Hotspur's main problem remains their lack of goals: at 0.5 goals per game, they rank last in the Premier League.
- Tottenham Hotspur's last 10 away Premier League matches have all finished with under 3.5 goals.
- Tottenham Hotspur have taken over 4.5 corners in 8 of their last 10 home Premier League matches.
- There have been under 4.5 offsides in 9 of Tottenham Hotspur's last 10 home Premier League matches.
Probable Tottenham Hotspur line-up (4-2-3-1): Antonín Kinský, Archie Gray, Marcos Senesi, Jan Paul van Hecke, Destiny Udogie, Lucas Bergvall, Sandro Tonali, Mohammed Kudus, Conor Gallagher, Sávio, Dominic Solanke

Form and Line-up Coventry City
Coventry City have already shown they can perform well away from home in the Premier League, winning 1:0 without conceding against Nottingham Forest in the fifth round. After the international break, Frank Lampard's side recorded a surprise 4:1 home win over Newcastle United. That lifted them to 14th.
- All three of Coventry City's away Premier League matches have had under 3.5 goals.
- Five of Coventry City's six Premier League matches have had under 9.5 corners.
- The first half has had under 1.5 goals in five of Coventry City's six Premier League matches.
