Fresh off a hard-fought 1-1 draw with Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur return to Premier League proceedings when Coventry City come visiting to London.
Against United, Dominic Solanke struck in the 92nd-minute – Spurs’ first away goal of the new season – to salvage a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford.
In their six opening league games, Spurs have drawn three and lost three. With only three points to show for, the hosts are in desperate need of an inspired performance to deroot themselves from the foot of the table.
Moreover, with only three goals scored, Tottenham have the least goals of any team in the Premier League.
Solanke’s presence in the final-third is of extreme importance to Spurs, who have struggled this campaign. If things continue as they are, Tottenham appear to be at serious risk of another relegation battle this season.

Roberto De Zerbi is expected to field Solanke as his lone marksman in a 4-2-3-1 formation, ahead of Omar Marmoush, Savio and James Maddison.
Solanke, who struck in stoppage time against United thanks to Sandro Tonali’s cross, now has his first goal of the season. It was an important one after missing a host of first-half chances.
At 29/20 (2.45), backing Solanke to score anytime against Coventry offers significant value. As for scoring or assisting, Solanke at 5/6 (1.83) is also worth the consideration, given he was one of their best passers against United, with a 11/14 (79%) pass completion rate and 31 touches.
The former Bournemouth striker could help Tottenham take the lead for the first time this season against the Premier League newcomers.
