Overview
- James Maddison started and scored a stunning 14th-minute opener on his first league start in 536 days as Tottenham beat Coventry 3-1.
- Omar Marmoush struck his first goal for Spurs to restore the lead and Ben Davies sealed the victory with a stoppage-time finish.
- Dejan Kulusevski made his long-awaited return as a late substitute after more than 500 days out with a knee injury.
- The win ended Tottenham’s six-game winless start and moved them to 16th in the table, a result that delivered short-term relief on Monday.
- Roberto De Zerbi still faces fresh absences and Rodrigo Bentancur’s suspension, leaving questions about depth and whether this result will translate into sustained improvement.
