Tottenham will look to make amends for a heart-breaking loss to Crystal Palace when they face Aston Villa at home ground. Spurs failed to impress in the local derby, but it has to be noted that key attacker Heung-Min Son misses the game with injury. The Korea ace, though, should recover in time to face the Villans, improving the home team’s chances of winning Sunday’s clash.
The Villans, on the other hand, dropped two points in a 1-1 draw with Bournemouth at the weekend. As Unai Emery’s troops struggled defensively in their last league match, we are tempted to put our money on Son and Co. this time out. In their last meeting in the Premier League Tottenham rolled over Aston Villa 4-0, adding an extra value to our earlier prediction. Emery should have a full squad to choose from for the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium showdown.
Score Prediction: Tottenham 2-1 Aston Villa
