Coventry vs Tottenham Hotspur Predictions

• Both teams have scored in seven of Coventry’s last nine at home
• Spurs have kept only three clean sheets in 16 away matches
• Coventry have won only three of their opening seven games

Goals galore at Coventry

Coventry are yet to meet expectations in this season’s Championship, where they have won only one of their opening five games, but they are capable of giving Premier League Tottenham a scare.

The Sky Blues showed their capabilities when making the semi-final of last season’s FA Cup, when they beat Wolves in the quarter-final before being unfortunate losers against Manchester United in the final four, and they have the attacking quality to make this an entertaining EFL Cup encounter.

Both teams have scored in three of Coventry’s last five matches and they have the counter-attacking qualities to expose Spurs, who are reeling following consecutive league losses to Newcastle and Arsenal.

Spurs defence perfect recipe for cup thriller

Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou is likely to ring the changes and they have kept only one clean sheet in four matches this season.

For all their attacking quality, Spurs deploy a high line which can be taken advantage of and that suggests both teams to score may be the approach for bettors.

Totteham have kept only three clean sheets in their last 16 competitive away games under Postecoglou and both teams have scored in seven of Coventry’s last nine matches on home turf.

Spurs, having added greater depth over the summer, are still likely to stamp their authority and correct-score punters can side with a 3-1 victory for the Premier League visitors.
