Tottenham beat Coventry 3-1 to record their first Premier League victory of the season. According to the league’s official report, James Maddison, Omar Marmoush and Ben Davies scored.

Three points and a return after 17 months

Dejan Kulusevski played again after a long absence; the Premier League records it as 17 months. That does not mean he can immediately carry a full workload, but it adds another attacking option.

BSR view: the win and the return are separate positives. The first eases pressure from the table, while the second expands the possibilities for the coming weeks. Related English football: Szoboszlai’s condition.
