Premier League Saturday: Man City host Coventry, Spurs visit Nottingham Forest

City’s manager Enzo Maresca has overseen a smooth start after a Community Shield defeat, beating Bournemouth 2-1 after coming from behind and then defeating Crystal Palace 4-1. Summer signing Enzo Fernandez has been integrated into the side, and Rayan Cherki and Erling Haaland have provided early attacking threat. Coventry, under Frank Lampard, have lost both matches since promotion, 3-0 at Arsenal and 1-0 at home to fellow promoted side Hull City, and remain without a point.

Nottingham Forest have one point from a 2-2 draw at Liverpool, following a home loss to Leeds in their opener. Oliver Glasner’s attack, including Morgan Gibbs-White, Igor Jesus and Dan Ndoye, created chances at Anfield, with summer record signing Liam Delap making his debut. Tottenham have lost against Brentford and Newcastle, scoring no goals and conceding five in two games, despite spending on Sandro Tonali, Mateus Fernandes and Savio. Manager Roberto De Zerbi can call on late arrivals Omar Marmoush, Mykhailo Mudryk and Tosin Adarabioyo for a match that sees Spurs try to end a run of four straight defeats against Forest.

Owing to the UK’s Saturday 3pm blackout rule, neither match will be shown live on British television. UK fans can watch highlights on the Sky Sports app and on BBC One’s Match of the Day. In the United States, Manchester City-Coventry is on USA Network, while Nottingham Forest-Tottenham is available on Peacock. Fubo carries both matches in Canada, and Stan Sport shows them in Australia. TechRadar notes that viewers outside their home country can use a VPN to access their usual streaming services.
