Tottenham enters Monday bottom of the table on 3 points from six matches, having scored just 3 goals while conceding 9. It’s been an abysmal start, as they’re now the only club without a win in this campaign.

They’ll be buoyed by their late draw at Old Trafford last weekend, with ST Dominic Solanke’s header securing them a point despite being a man down against Manchester United. The draw was their third in four matches, and they’ll hope to turn the results into victories soon given the money spent in the summer transfer window. 

Solanke is joint-top scorer for Spurs with CM Conor Gallagher and CB Jan Paul van Hecke, while CM Sandro Tonali, LB Andy Robertson, and FW Mohammed Kudus all contributing assists. GK Antonín Kinský has kept a pair of clean sheets thus far.

Tottenham will be without numerous players for Monday’s fixture. CM Rodrigo Bentancur is serving the first match of a three-match ban for his red card against Manchester United last weekend. FW Savio is set to miss “some weeks” per manager Roberto De Serbi, while LW Lucas Bergvall is not quite ready to return.

RB Pedro Porro is also still a week from returning.

RW Dejan Kulusevski is back in the side, making his first appearance on the bench in more than 500 days. CAM James Maddison is also expected to start for the first time in six months. 

For Coventry, they continue to play without American ST Haji Wright, whose return is still a few weeks away. CM Josh Eccles is also out. They’ve utilized a 3-4-2-1 or 3-4-3 setup in every away fixture this season, but manager Frank Lampard could switch to a 4-2-3-1 that saw tremendous success in a win over Newcastle. 

The newly-promoted side has won two matches in a row after a rough start to the campaign. They followed up a 1-0 win away at Nottingham Forest by ripping Newcastle to shreds. The 4-1 victory came despite the Magpies holding a 1.84 to 1.47 xG advantage and outshooting Coventry 19-9 on the day.

The win leaves them in 16th entering Monday, with 6 points after six matches. They’re tied with Spurs on goal differential, sporting a -6 mark having scored 5 goals while conceding 11 times.

Five different Coventry players are tied for the season lead with 1 goal apiece, with ST Ellis Simms and ST Sidiki Cherif leading the line in Wright’s absence. LB Jay Dasilva, RW Brandon Thomas-Asante, and GK Carl Rushworth each have an assist. Rushworth has also kept a clean sheet.
