Tottenham vs Coventry Game Preview

Tottenham host Coventry in a Premier League matchup at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Our Tottenham vs Coventry prediction starts with one question: can the last-placed hosts finally get off the mark?

Spurs are still hunting their first Premier League win of the season. They showed promising signs in last weekend's tie at Manchester United, but finishing remains the glaring problem.

Newly promoted Coventry arrive in fine form. Clinical finishing delivered a shock win over Newcastle and lifted them clear of the relegation zone.

History sides with the hosts. Tottenham have won their last 5 games against Coventry in all competitions, and the visitors have to snap that run to keep their climb going.

Tottenham vs Coventry Recent Results

Tottenham have failed to win their last 6 games in the Premier League, and that leaves them at the bottom of the standings. The latest was a 1-1 tie at Manchester United, where Dominic Solanke grabbed a late equalizer with Spurs down a man. That was gutsy, but the finishing has to improve fast.

Coventry are rolling. They edged Nottingham Forest and then thumped Newcastle 4-1, good for back-to-back Premier League wins. Frank Lampard has every reason to stick with the group that got them here.
