Ladbrokes' football tips - Saturday, September 19, 2026: Spurs and Coventry fail to score again

Ladbrokes' football special tip - Saturday, September 19, 2026

Spurs and Coventry are the two Premier League teams still searching for their first goals of the season after four games, a tag they will both look to shake when they take on Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest respectively on Saturday.

In some ways, Coventry's barren start is more understandable, given they have returned to the Premier League for the first time in 25 with little top-flight experience in their squad. That said, manager Frank Lampard would have hoped for a much better start for the Championship winners, with a 5-0 home loss to Brighton last weekend really exposing their issues.

Tottenham's goalless start is much more unforgivable, having spent upwards of £300million on reshaping their squad this summer, with much of that going on big-name attacking signings like Omar Marmoush and Savio,

Neither club have particularly easy games to come, either, with Spurs losing four of their last five home matches against the Villans prior to Saturday's meeting in the early kick-off.

Coventry have a tough away trip on Saturday evening to Midlands rivals Nottingham Forest, who won at Villa last week in convincing style and are beginning to click under Oliver Glasner. The Sky Blues have failed to score in four of their last six trips to the City Ground, finding the net only once in each of the other two.

With confidence in the attacking boxes so low for both sides, our experts can see a scenario where both clubs remain on zero goals past the fifth Gameweek. That is exactly what our special Saturday double backs, available at 10/1 at the time of writing.
