Following their run to the FA cup semi-finals last year, Championship side Coventry City will be hoping for a repeat performance in the Carabao Cup this season, as they start their campaign against Tottenham. The sky blues are seen as a side that may be able to force their way out of the Championship this season and reach the promised land of the Premier League and they should relish being able to test themselves against one of the Premier League’s big boys in Tottenham.

Coventry City vs Tottenham Analysis
This should be a fantastic contest, with all of the pressure lumped on Tottenham to reach the next round of the Carabao Cup.
Coventry City
Losing in the semi-finals of the FA Cup last spring in agonising fashion to Manchester United was a tough pill for Coventry to swallow but the cyclical nature of football gives them another chance to challenge the big boys this season. They have endured a quiet start to the Championship season this time around and currently sit in 17th, but this should be a welcome distraction against a Premier League super power here.
Team news: Ben Sheaf looks set to miss this one for the sky blues.
Coventry City Predicted Lineup:
Dovin, Binks, Bidwell, Latibeaudiere, Eccles, Rudoni, Torp, Allen, Dasilva, Simms & Wright.
Tottenham
Inconsistency looks to blight Tottenham again this term, with Spurs having picked up 4 points from their opening 3 games and failing to win both of their opening away games this term. A trophy drought continues to be something that hurts Tottenham, but it was the Carabao Cup that they last lifted in 2008 and how Ange Postecoglou will be hoping his current crop can do the same in 2025.
Team news: Richarlison and Dominic Solanke will miss out here for Spurs.
Tottenham Predicted Lineup:
Forster, Davies, Spence, Gray, Dragusin, Sarr, Bissouma, Bergvall, Werner, Johnson & Bentancur.
Coventry City vs Tottenham Prediction
This should be a very good game in the Midlands, as Coventry look to test themselves against one of the best sides in the Premier League. The sky blues proved last season that they have what it takes to worry some of the biggest sides in the top flight and they will be bang up for this, but Spurs should be able to come through this test and reach round 4 of the Carabao Cup.
Prediction: Tottenham to win the match – 8/15 (-188) – Rhino Bet.
Coventry City vs Tottenham – The Ultimate Bet
Tottenham to win & BTTS – 9/5 (+180) – Fitzdares
The atmosphere at the Ricoh Arena should be fantastic here and both sides will be bang up for it from the outset. Coventry carry a serious goal threat and should trouble Spurs but Ange Postecoglou’s side should prevail in this one.
