Tottenham vs Aston Villa: Prediction, kick off time today, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results, betting odds

Tottenham face Aston Villa on Sunday with Nuno Espirito Santo under pressure after three consecutive Premier League defeats.

Spurs endured a wretched September and losses against Crystal Palace, Chelsea and Arsenal have left Nuno facing questions over whether he is up to the job.

Harry Kane scored a hat-trick as Tottenham thrashed Slovenian minnows NS Mura 5-1 in the Europa Conference League on Thursday to provide a welcome confidence boost.

But Nuno is also under pressure to start winning in a more convincing and coherent way than in wins over Manchester City, Wolves and Watford at the start of the season.

Villa look a good side under Dean Smith this season and come into the game on a high after winning 1-0 at Manchester United last weekend.

Date, kick-off time and venue

Tottenham vs Aston Villa is scheduled for an 2pm BST kick-off at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday.

Tottenham vs Aston Villa prediction

This feels like a must-win game for Nuno. Thursday’s Europa League win, and the return to form of Kane, provided some building blocks and Spurs need to respond after last weekend’s chastening defeat at Arsenal.
