Tottenham

Starting with the hosts, while Tottenham might have snatched a last-gasp 1-1 draw away at fellow strugglers Manchester United last time out, Spurs still find themselves at the heart of a Premier League crisis. Sat in the relegation zone and once again breaking plenty of unwanted records since opening up the 2026/27 campaign, Roberto De Zerbi’s men have rightfully come under a huge amount of scrutiny. Only just clinging to their Premier League status last season, Monday’s hosts have remarkably failed to put a maiden top-flight win on the board from any of their first six attempts. Getting proceedings underway with a woeful 3-0 drumming at the hands of Brentford on August 22nd, Tottenham have also registered just a trio of Premier League points so far. Heading into September’s extended international break with a rollercoaster 3-2 defeat at home against Aston Villa, De Zerbi’s downbeat squad have a huge amount of pressure on their shoulders here.

Shown a fiery straight red card at Old Trafford last time out, Uruguayan international Rodrigo Bentancur will miss out through suspension on Monday night. All still recovering from respective long-term injury issues, Spurs will be unable to call upon the likes of Dejan Kulusevski, Xavi Simons, Wilson Odobert and Chelsea loanee Mykhailo Mudryk here.

Bagging that last-gasp equaliser against Manchester United, former Bournemouth striker Dominic Solanke will lead De Zerbi’s attack in north London. England international and ex-Coventry youngster James Maddison could make a maiden start of the season against his boyhood club.

Coventry City

As for the visitors, only making their famous Premier League return this season, it is no secret that Coventry’s sole focus is on maintaining their top-flight status. While Frank Lampard’s men might have opened up the 2026/27 campaign by losing all of their first five showdowns against Premier League opposition across all competitions, the Sky Blues have certainly come roaring back on either side of September’s prolonged international break. Marking their return last week with a sensational display in the Midlands as they stormed their way to a thumping 4-1 victory against European dreamers Newcastle, the former Everton boss has seen his squad register consecutive Premier League wins. With the mood in their camp certainly at a season-high, Coventry should be excited by a trip to north London on Monday night.

All still recovering from respective injury issues sustained last season, Coventry will travel to north London on Monday night without the trio of Kaine Kesler-Hayden, Luke Woolfenden and USA international Haji Wright. However, after serving a three-match suspension on either side of September’s international break, summer recruit Taiwo Awoniyi will return to Lampard’s travelling squad.

Completing a late summer switch from Brentford, experienced defender Ethan Pinnock will start at the heart of Coventry’s defence. Storming their way to that sensational 4-1 victory against Newcastle last time out, Lampard will be tempted to name an unchanged starting XI.

Tottenham vs Coventry City Key Factors to Consider

• The last time that Tottenham and Coventry met back in September 2024, Spurs clinched a 2-1 EFL Cup victory in the Midlands.
• In fact, Spurs have won each of their previous five straight meetings against Coventry across all competitions by an aggregate score of 13-1.
• Tottenham have failed to win any of their first six Premier League appearances this season (three defeats, three draws).
• Including a dominant 4-1 victory against Newcastle last time out, Coventry have registered consecutive Premier League wins.
• Spurs have astonishingly mustered just a sole Premier League win in front of their own supporters so far this calendar year.

While Tottenham might have won all of their previous five consecutive meetings against Monday’s guests across all competitions by an aggregate score of 13-1, Spurs have continued to show a string of glaring issues in north London. Astonishingly claiming just a sole Premier League win in front of their own supporters so far this calendar year, De Zerbi’s downbeat squad will meet a Coventry side who have certainly found their feet on either side of September’s international break. Breezing past Newcastle last time out and storming their way to an empathic 4-1 victory in the Midlands, the Sky Blues have registered consecutive Premier League wins and will be excited by a trip to the capital on Monday night.
