Date: Sunday, October 19, 2025
Kick-off time: 14:00 (UK)
Venue: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Tottenham – flying high under Thomas Frank – welcome Aston Villa to North London. Both teams are on a roll, and honestly, this might be one of those “don’t blink or you’ll miss it” kind of games.

Tottenham haven’t lost in seven, while Villa have strung together four straight wins in all competitions. So yeah, both are feeling confident. Spurs are sitting third, Villa are climbing fast, and there’s that little buzz around both camps that something special might be building.

So, who comes out on top this Sunday? Let’s dive in.

Tottenham vs Aston Villa Team News

Tottenham Team News

Tottenham have been in solid form, but not everything’s perfect. Cristian Romero picked up a slight knock during the international break, and he’s touch-and-go for this one. Yves Bissouma returns after serving a one-match suspension, which gives Spurs some bite back in midfield.

Thomas Frank’s likely to stick with his preferred setup – compact, quick transitions, and plenty of energy. Expect Vicario in goal, with Porro, Van de Ven, and Udogie forming the core at the back. In midfield, Maddison pulls the strings as usual, with Kulusevski and Johnson buzzing around him. Up top? Son Heung-min – in red-hot form – leads the line.

Tottenham’s clean sheets haven’t come easy, but they’ve got enough attacking firepower to trouble anyone.

Aston Villa Team News

Unai Emery has turned things around fast. After a shaky start to the season, Villa are suddenly one of the form sides in England. The only downside? A few injury concerns. Diego Carlos and Boubacar Kamara remain out, and Leon Bailey faces a late fitness test.

That said, there’s plenty of good news. Ollie Watkins and Morgan Rogers both scored for England during the international break, and that confidence boost couldn’t come at a better time. Emi Martínez returns in goal, Pau Torres anchors the defence, and Douglas Luiz keeps things ticking in midfield. Expect Moussa Diaby and Watkins to lead the charge up front.

Likely Lineups

Tottenham (3-4-2-1): Vicario; Van de Ven, Romero, Udogie; Porro, Bissouma, Bentancur, Maddison; Kulusevski, Johnson; Son.

Aston Villa (4-2-3-1): Martínez; Cash, Konsa, Torres, Digne; Luiz, Tielemans; Rogers, McGinn, Diaby; Watkins.

Tottenham vs Aston Villa Betting Tips

Tottenham are flying but not exactly watertight at the back – just one clean sheet in their last five. Villa, meanwhile, have scored nine in their last five and look sharp in front of goal. You put those two together and “Both Teams to Score” feels like an easy pick.

Let’s look at a few angles worth your time:

• Both Teams to Score – Yes (they almost always do in this fixture)
• Over 2.5 Goals (both are in strong scoring form)
• Donyell Malen or Ollie Watkins Anytime Scorer (both are hot right now)
• Draw or Aston Villa Double Chance (value’s there, trust me)

The numbers back it up, too. Four of the last six head-to-heads between these sides saw both teams score. Spurs have only won one of their last five by more than a single goal. This one could easily go either way.

Tottenham vs Aston Villa Match Prediction

So, how do I see it? Spurs will dominate early, especially with the home crowd roaring them on. But Villa aren’t pushovers anymore – they know how to soak up pressure and hit hard on the break.

Tottenham’s attack will ask questions, but Villa’s confidence and pace up front can definitely hurt them. I’m expecting a proper back-and-forth battle, plenty of energy, and at least a couple of goals each.

Match Prediction: Draw. Bet with bet365.

Tottenham vs Aston Villa Correct Score Prediction

If I had to lock one in, I’d say 1-1 looks right. Spurs have been grinding out tight results, while Villa have enough threat to grab one. If it opens up late, 2-2 wouldn’t surprise me either.

Correct Score Prediction: Tottenham 1-1 Aston Villa. Bet with bet365.

Tottenham vs Aston Villa Over/Under Goals Betting Tips

You’ll like this one if you enjoy goals. Spurs have scored in every league game this season. Villa have hit the net nine times in five matches. Neither side’s defence looks watertight.

Over 2.5 feels safe. Over 3.5? That’s your higher-odds punt if you think this turns into a slugfest.

Over/Under Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals. Bet with bet365.
