Tottenham v Aston Villa
📅
Kick Off: Sunday 3rd November at 14:00
🏆
Competition: Premier League
📺
Watch Live: Sky Sports Main Event
Tottenham Hotspur play host to Aston Villa in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon. Spurs will be looking to get back up and running in the league after losing 1-0 to Crystal Palace last weekend, but will be boosted by their midweek EFL Cup win against Man City. Aston Villa will also be aiming to get back on track in the topflight after drawing 1-1 with Bournemouth last Saturday.
⭐ Tottenham v Aston Villa Best Bets
Look for Tottenham to hit over 6.5 corners on Sunday. Ange Postecoglou’s side have averaged a whopping 9.33 corners per game across their opening nine Premier League games of the season. They have delivered seven or more flag-kicks in eight of those nine contests.
It’s also worth noting that Tottenham have earned a minimum of seven corners in each of their four top-flight home games this term. A repeat therefore holds plenty of appeal.

👕 Tottenham v Aston Villa Predicted XI
🔍 Tottenham v Aston Villa Players to Watch
⚪ Son Heung-min
If passed fit, then Son Heung-min stands out to earn his side at least one free-kick on Sunday. The Tottenham captain has picked up a foul in four of his six Premier League appearances this season.
Son was drawing an average of 1.16 fouls per game in the top-flight last term. He is likely to be up against Matty Cash, who has committed 1+ foul in four of his five Premier League outings this season.
🟣 Youri Tielemans
Youri Tielemans has been a serial offender this season. The Aston Villa midfielder has committed a combined total of 16 fouls across his nine Premier League appearances this term. The all-action Belgian has given away multiple free-kicks in six of those nine outings.
Thus, he looks well worth supporting to commit two or more fouls on Sunday. Tielemans should be kept busy when trying to shackle Tottenham foul magnets Dejan Kulusevski and James Maddison.

💻 Tottenham v Aston Villa Form and Tactics
Tottenham fell to their fourth Premier League defeat of the season at Crystal Palace last weekend. Spurs dominated possession (66%) at Selhurst Park but lacked composure and a cutting edge in the final third. Postecoglou’s side generated an xG of just 0.74. They lost the shot count 14-11, with Palace also registering more on target efforts (6-3).
Spurs rediscovered their shooting boots in midweek when eliminating Man City from the EFL Cup, hitting the target with seven of their 11 attempts on goal.
Tottenham continue to be prolific when it comes to earning corners. They hit eight in their last Premier League outing at Crystal Palace. Only Man City (88) have racked up more flag-kicks than Spurs (84) this season.
Tottenham were shown four yellow cards at Crystal Palace last weekend. Consequently, Postecoglou’s team have now picked up two or more cards in six of their last seven Premier League matches.
Aston Villa are unbeaten in seven Premier League matches. However, they have drawn three of their last four, not to mention they lost to Crystal Palace in the EFL Cup on Wednesday night.
Unai Emery’s side were wasteful with their 1.81 xG, 18 shots and eight attempts that hit the target against Bournemouth last weekend. They gave up an xG of just 0.31, but Bournemouth pinched a point at the death with one of their three on-target efforts.
Villa amassed seven yellow cards against Bournemouth last weekend. As such, they have now averaged 2.89 yellows per game across their opening nine Premier League games of the season, a figure that rises to 3.25 when playing away from Villa Park. That has coincided with them committing an average of 13.75 fouls per 90 on the road this season, a tally topped only by West Ham (15.25).
