Aston Villa v Tottenham

Aston Villa host Europa League finalists Tottenham as Unai Emery’s side chase a spot in the Champions League final next season. Villa have put together a strong run of form in the league to end the season, winning each of their last seven Premier League matches.

Tottenham’s focus will be on the Europa League final but Ange Postecoglu will be eager to ensure that they don’t limp to Bilbao. The Lilywhites have failed to win any of their last five games in the Premier League, a record that has left them sitting 17th in the table. 

⭐ Aston Villa v Tottenham Best Bet

Porro has had to struggle at times in this Tottenham backline, he is the only player in Ange’s preferred back four (Udogie, Van de Ven, Romero and Porro) to not pick up a long-term injury at some point this season. This has seen him play with a constantly changing backline which partly explains why Tottenham have been so open at the back this term.

This hasn’t stopped Porro from playing in a very positive way, he’s won 31 fouls across his 32 Premier League appearances this season, 27 of these have been starts taking his average to 1.11 fouls won per 90. Porro’s eight goal contributions this season also suggest that the fullback isn’t static down his side of the pitch and will push up high when he gets the opportunity to do so.

Porro has been fouled in each of the two head-to-head meetings between the sides this season in the FA Cup and the Premier League. On both occasions he was up against Jacob Ramsey who has committed five fouls across these two meetings, four of which came in the FA Cup game at Villa Park. Ramsey is suspended for this game so it’s likely that Rogers is placed on that side, Rogers is averaging 1.43 fouls committed per 90 in the Premier League this season. 

Villa exceeded their foul average of 10.9 fouls committed per 90 in each of the head-to-head meetings between the sides this season, committing 11 fouls in the cup tie and 14 in the league game. Porro’s battle against Rogers should stand out here with a few fouls traded between the two players.

👕 Aston Villa v Tottenham Predicted XI

🔍 Aston Villa v Tottenham Players to Watch

🟣 Amadou Onana

Onana was hauled down four times against Bournemouth, contesting 13 duels in the game and impressively managing to win 10 of these. He’s having to play a slightly different role in the absence of Youri Tielemans who has picked up an injury. This should see Onana’s foul won average slightly increase in the final few weeks of the season. Onana has won 28 fouls across his 24 Premier League appearances this season (1.71 per 90). Onana was fouled twice in the initial league meeting between these sides in North London.

🟣 Morgan Rogers

Only Ollie Watkins (23) has registered more goal contributions for Aston Villa in the Premier League this season than Morgan Rogers (17). Villa rely on the pair heavily to pitch in for their goals, even with the added reinforcement to the attacking line in January. Rogers provided an assist for Watkins in Villa’s important 1-0 win over Bournemouth last time out and has provided a goal contribution in both games against Tottenham this season in the FA Cup and the league. Rogers picked up a goal and an assist in a man of the match performance against the Lilywhites in Villa's cup win over Ange Postecoglu’s side.
