Tottenham Hotspur vs Aston Villa Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Premier League 2025-26

The Villans secured an easy win when these sides last met.

Tottenham Hotspur are gearing up to take on Aston Villa for their matchweek 8 fixture of the Premier League 2025-26 season. This is going to be an interesting contest, which will take place at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The Thomas Frank-led are coming in after securing a win against Leeds United in their previous league contest. It was a close contest, but the Spurs managed to secure three points after scoring a goal in the second half. Tottenham Hotspur will be at home for their upcoming fixture and will be looking to continue their form.

After their poor start to the season, Aston Villa are slowly gaining momentum. The Unai Emery-led side secured a win against Burnley in their previous Premier League outing. For their next clash, the Villans are going to be away from home, and it is going to be a tough task for them.

Players to Watch

Mohammed Kudus (Tottenham)

The 25-year-old from Ghana is going to be an important part of the squad for the Spurs in their upcoming fixture. Mohammed Kudus is looking good and is going to be a constant threat to the opponent’s defence as he will be leading the attack from the right. He has scored one goal and has four assists to his name in seven league games this season.

Evann Guessand (Aston Villa)

Evann Guessand will be a crucial asset in the attacking front for Aston Villa. He is looking to step up his game so that he can help his side by scoring a goal or two. It is not going to be an easy fixture for the Villans, but a top performance can help them surpass the challenge from Tottenham.
