Spurs will look to bounce back from an opening-day loss.
Tottenham Hotspur will host Charlton Athletic for a second-round Carabao Cup 2026-27 fixture on Wednesday, August 26. The new-look Spurs squad, assembled at the cost of more than £300 million over the summer, will look to secure their first competitive win of the season tonight.
The presence of several new signings, such as Sandro Tonali, could not prevent Tottenham from suffering a 3-0 loss at the hands of Brentford in their Premier League opener. Spurs have signed more players since, including Manchester City’s Savio, but the goal for Roberto De Zerbi will be to turn his expensive group of players into a cohesive unit.
Charlton Athletic, on the other hand, have won both of their EFL Championship matches so far. A 2-1 win over Derby County was followed by a win by the same scoreline against West Ham United. The second-division side will look for a surprise victory against an out-of-form Spurs side tonight.
