Tottenham Hotspur - Aston Villa betting tips and odds

Aston Villa will give Tottenham Hotspur a run for their money and there is no doubt about it. However, at 2.38 odds on home win in this match, we still recommend backing the hosts.

From the present perspective, the situation is evident. Considering the strength of Tottenham and the fact that Villa are given 2.85 odds to win, it is clear that anything but a home win would be a remarkable surprise.

Tottenham are coming on the back of a narrow loss at Wolverhampton Wanderers last round. Their supporters had high hopes for that matchup thanks to relatively favourable betting odds and the lead they took in the first half, but their composure crumbled after halftime.

Villa are here on the back of a noted triumph against Fulham. They maintained an impressive lead throughout the match, which lead to a comfortable 3:1 home victory.

With 7 concessions over the last 3 matches, Spurs will definitely have to make some improvements in their defensive line.

The visitors are on a bit of a purple patch when it comes to scoring, with 5 goals scored in total in their latest 3 Premier League matches. If the trend continues, we’re bound to see a pretty exciting game here.

Though we’re too early in the season to make any real predictions about the final standings, Tottenham are off to a great start this season. They’re among the leading positions on the table, but staying there with matchups like Aston Villa is not going to be easy.

Villa are currently sitting in a Europa League place, though it’s safe to assume they have higher ambitions. The upcoming clash at SpursS will be a major hurdle on their way to a higher placement, though.

Taking a quick at the recent history of these two teams and their clashes, the line between favourites and underdogs becomes a bit blurred. Tottenham lost one of these games last season with a painfully large goal difference, yet they’re widely regarded as the favourites to win the match on Sunday.

This match is notable for the number of injuries reported prior by both sides. On one hand, the hosts will have to make do without Richarlison, Ivan Perišić, Alfie Whiteman, James Maddison, Micky van de Ven. On the other, the visitors will not be able to count on John McGinn, Emiliano Buendía, Tyrone Mings, Diego Carlos. Both are in a precarious state, but you should take the importance of these players to the respective strategies before putting down a stake.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1.54 odds offered at Betfair.
