Aston Villa - Tottenham Hotspur predictions

Predicting which side will win this match based on odds alone is a complete toss-up. We would say the hosts have a bit of an advantage, but their success is by no means assured.

The visitors are conscious of the challenge before them. To come out on top against Aston Villa on their home field would be a noteworthy accomplishment, and it is never an easy task.

Those who backed Villans to secure a Halftime/Fulltime win in the previous round were given a proper nail-biter. Heavily favoured for a big win, Aston Villa were forced to work hard for three points and can count themselves happy with what they got.

Tottenham Hotspur put in a rather uninspiring performance in the first half of their previous home game against Crystal Palace. The latter 45 minutes, on the other hand, saw them take home a stunning 3:1 victory.

After recording more than 5 concessions in the previous 3 home games alone, confidence in Villa and their ability to bank on home-field advantage is shaky.

Tottenham netted 6 goals in their last three showdowns, which means this match might be a great chance to look at Over Goals markets. With some luck, a confirmed Over 4.5 seems quite plausible.

Aston Villa have their work cut out for them in this game, but snatching 3 points here might be just what they need to climb to the top of the standings. They’ll need a total of 8 points to do so.

A lot of teams would be happy with Tottenham current position on the table. With the end of the season in sight, they are heading for the Europa League if they maintain the 5th spot on the table. Still, plenty of time to move further up.

The last time these two teams met Villa managed to secure a solid away win, although it was rather narrow. They’re still considered the favourites in this matchup, especially now that they have the home-field advantage on their side.

Thankfully, Tottenham Hotspur will be able to bring out their roster in full force, with no players forced to the sidelines due to injury or suspension. They’re still considered underdogs, mind you, but it’s something to consider.

An Over 3.5 Goals bet is easily the smartest choice for this fixture, consider in the teams’ respective histories. It’s a considerably more probable outcome than it seems, so the 2.55 odds are great value.
