Preview
Tottenham have three points from six league games and no win yet. The problem is finishing, not chances. Spurs have taken 84 league shots and scored only three goals, and they have won just three of their last 22 home league games. They were a goal and a man down at Old Trafford before Dominic Solanke levelled late for a 1-1 draw, but Rodrigo Bentancur's red card there means he is suspended. Xavi Simons, Wilson Odobert and Mykhailo Mudryk are out, while Pedro Porro and Dejan Kulusevski are doubts. Newly promoted Coventry arrive in form under Frank Lampard after a 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest and a 4-1 win over Newcastle, five goals in two games. They are missing Aurele Amenda, Luke Woolfenden, Josh Eccles and Haji Wright. That record makes us cooler on the home win than the market, rating it at 60%, which is short of value at 1.54. Goals are the better angle: Spurs keep creating and Coventry have shown they can score. We rate over 2.5 at 60%.
Spurs create plenty but their home record is poor, so the 1.54 home win is too short for us. Over 2.5 goals at 1.64 is the pick, rated at 60%.
