Prediction: 1-3
Tottenham
Coventry City will try to claim a major scalp in the EFL Cup last 32 when they face Tottenham at their Coventry Building Society Arena. The Sky Blues failed to win the previous three Championship games and it is no wonder the bookies see them as underdogs in Wednesday’s encounter. Jamaica international Joel Latibeaudiere limped off with injury in a 1-1 draw with Watford at the weekend, with Haji Wright being ready to step up.
Spurs, meanwhile, aim to recover from back-to-back defeats to Newcastle United and Arsenal. Considering that Ange Postecoglou will not have a better chance than this to get back on course, away win should definitely be considered. All Lucas Bergvall, Timo Werner, Pape Matar Sarr, and Wilson Odobert should be recalled to the starting XI, while both Yves Bissouma and Richarlison remain in the treatment room. Korea international Son should be rested against Coventry City.
Highlighted Player (Heung-min Son):
Over the years Son Heung-Min has established himself as one of the best Asian footballers.
