Aston Villa vs Tottenham Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

The Villans are all set to battle the Spurs in the FA Cup.

Aston Villa will lock horns with Tottenham Hotspur in their upcoming FA Cup 2024-25 4th-round match. The Villans defeated West Ham in their previous cup encounter. It was a close game, but Aston Villa scored a couple of goals in the second half to win the clash. Tottenham on the other hand secured an easy win over Tamworth in their third round match.

Aston Villa are in decent form and have added a couple of important players to the squad. With Marcus Rashford and Marco Asensio joining in, they will be looking to step up their game. They will have an equally matched side to play against when they go up against Spurs in their upcoming fixture.

Tottenham Hotspur were knocked out of the Carabao Cup after Liverpool dominated them in the second leg. Spurs will be low on confidence as their poor run of form continues. Aston Villa are going to be a tough challenge for Ange Postecoglou’s men. But it will be interesting to see which team will outplay the other.

Form:

Aston Villa: D-L-D-W-L

Players to Watch

Marcus Rashford (Aston Villa)

Having recently loaned out to Aston Villa from Manchester United, Marcus Rashford is going to play a key role for the Villans when they face Spurs next in the FA Cup. In the absence of Ollie Watkins, Rashford might lead the attack from the front. It will not be his usual position but can still lay a good amount of impact for his side.

Son Heung-min (Tottenham Hotspur)

The South Korean winger is having a dry run. Son Heung-min stays important for the Spurs in their attacking front. Attacking from the left, Son helps his team in creating chances.

He is also good at scoring goals but at the moment he is not so much in the form. The South Korea national football team player will have to step up for Tottenham so that they will have a chance to get to the next round of the cup competition.
