Tottenham Hotspur lock horns with Aston Villa on Sunday, November 3, 2024, in a huge matchday 10 Premier League affair.

Tottenham Hotspur Vs Aston Villa

Spurs head into the game on the back of a 2-1 victory over Manchester City in the Carabao Cup, with boss Ange Postecoglou keen on helping the club win a trophy this season.

Tottenham Hotspur have won an equal number of Premier League matches as they have lost this term (4), with the North London side sharing the spoils in just 1 game so far.

The encounter against Aston Villa promises to be intense, as both sides have got quality players at their disposal.

Spurs appear to know how to silence the top teams, having hammered Manchester United 3-0 in the Premier League on September 29, 2024, alongside their recent 2-1 win over Manchester City.

It will be fascinating to see if they have the wherewithal to submerge Aston Villa in North London.

Tottenham Hotspur, who have lacked consistency this season, currently occupy the 8 spot on the Premier League table, having secured 13 points from 9 matches.

Aston Villa

Unai Emery looks to have made this club thick, as they are now amongst the teams competing to finish in glowing positions in the Premier League at the end of the season.

Aston Villa visit North London on the back of a 2-1 loss to Crystal Palace at Villa Park in the EFL Cup.

The Villains were handed their second defeat of the campaign by Oliver Glasner’s side, and their hopes of claiming silverware this season have become slimmer.

Anyway, before their loss to Crystal Palace, Aston Villa had been sublime across all competitions, losing 1 game from their previous 13 matches.

In the Premier League, Unai Emery’s side are unbeaten in their last 11 games and they will be hoping to continue that run against Tottenham Hotspur.

They painfully shared the spoils with Bournemouth in their last league fixture, as the Cherries equalized deep into stoppage time through Evanilson after Ross Barkley had put Aston Villa ahead in the 76th minute.

Aston Villa momentarily went ahead 28 minutes into the clash via a goal from John McGinn which was chalked off by VAR following a review.

The Villains will be looking to return to winning ways at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium, as they aim to achieve relative success this term.

Aston Villa occupy the 4th position with 18 points, having won 5 games, drawn 3 and lost 1.

Moreover, Wilson Odobert is injured, while Timo Werner picked up a knock in midweek, but both Cristian Romero and Heung-min Son are expected to feature in the upcoming encounter.
