No 4-0 to Spurs this time against the Villains
It’s two weeks since we last saw Spurs in the Premier League. And it’s been two long weeks for them to reflect on their surprise 3-0 defeat by West Ham at White Hart Lane in one of the early shocks of the season.
They will now look at this as a ‘must win’ to get themselves back into contention (and up to joint fourth in the table) and ensure the wheels, that have become loose, don’t come off completely.
On the positive side they have a good record against Villa, including thumping 4-0 wins the last two times they have met:

Villa already look a better side this season than last and have already performed with great success against some of the ‘big guns’ beating Arsenal 3-1 and Manchester City 3-2.
Aston Villa (from): Guzan, Steer, Baker, Bennett, Vlaar, Clark, Luna, Lowton, Bacuna, El Ahmadi, Delph, Westwood, Herd, Sylla, Tonev, Kozak, Helenius, Weimann, Benteke, Agbonlahor, Bowery.

The Spurs / Villa supremacy is set at around 0.3-0.5 with Star Spreads but I think it could be a lot tighter than recent encounters.
As such I’m a seller.
