Tottenham vs Aston Villa: Prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results, odds today
Aston Villa stand in the way of Tottenham and a return to the thick of the early Premier League title runnings.
The excitement of Spurs' best start in more than 60 years has been somewhat tempered by back-to-back defeats and a string of injuries and suspensions to key players.

Indeed, a third defeat on the trot - and one against a Villa side firmly on the up - could prove costly come the end of the season.
A victory, meanwhile, will rocket them up to third in the table and just a point off leaders Arsenal following yesterday's draw between Manchester City and Liverpool.
Spurs will look at their form against Villa with some hope after winning 17 of their last 22 across all competitions, but lost home and away to Unai Emery's side last season.

Tottenham vs Aston Villa prediction
While the defeat to Wolves last time out came in cruel fashion for Spurs, with two goals coming in injury time to seal a 2-1 victory, it was no less than the hosts deserved. They showed little attacking threat in the absence for James Maddison, though Giovani Lo Celso's late cameo almost produced a goal when Spurs were still 1-0 up.
Aston Villa will be pleased with what they saw at Molineux and confident of a third win on the bounce over Spurs. They have lost just twice in the league since the opening day but any chink in their armour is their away form which reads: played six, won two, drawn one and lost three.
