Aston Villa vs Tottenham Prediction

Aston Villa Form

Aston Villa recorded two wins in their last three matches, but started off by losing 3-0 against Crystal Palace. They responded by beating Fulham 1-0, and followed that up by winning 0-1 against Bournemouth. Aston Villa managed a strong return of four wins from their previous six matches on home soil in the Premier League, where they also drew twice and lost none. They scored 12 goals and conceded six times.

Aston Villa had their sights set on qualifying for Europe, and this is still a highly probable outcome to the season, but they need to remain focused.

Tottenham Form

Tottenham recorded a diverse set of results in their last three matches. They began with a 1-1 draw with West Ham. A 0-2 win against Bodo/Glimt followed, before a 0-2 defeat against Crystal Palace in their most recent match. Tottenham only have one paltry win to show from the last six away games in the Premier League. In these six matches they drew one and lost four as well as being outscored by 14 goals to eight.

Many people had The Lilywhites down as candidates for the drop before the season, but rescue is still within reach, as the season nears its end.

We expect The Villans to make home advantage count but equally, we do not expect a festival of goals against Tottenham. Hence, our punt on the home win in a match with no more than three goals.

Aston Villa recorded 19 points following five wins from their last ten games against teams placed among the bottom six. They scored 15 goals, but also conceded 11. Tottenham fought their way to two wins and six points from their last 11 games against teams inside the top six. They were on target 18 times in these matches, but also let in 25 goals. Aston Villa have a record of 18 wins, nine draws and nine defeats in the Premier League this season. Tottenham enjoy a record of 11 wins, five draws and 20 defeats in the Premier League.
