It is a duel between two teams that have played many years in the Premier League, Aston Villa but now evolving Championship and wants to promote. Tottenham climbed to 3rd position in the rankings after last 5 wins. Aston Villa are somewhere in mid-table in the Second Division, specifically in 12th place after 25 stages. The last two direct confrontations premier league were won by Tottenham.
Tottenham
It is in great shape and certainly thinks only of victory. The last round of the championship leader defeated Chelsea 2-0 in front of fans, the stadium White Hart Lane. This great result Tottenham returned to fight for the top spot. I already mentioned that comes after a series of five triumphs in a row, and besides that need to mention that spring is qualified in Europa League. Perhaps the young midfielder Alli will be titular, because in the previous 3 games scored 6 times and strikers who played against Chelsea will be spared. Lamela will miss, because accuses some injuries.
Aston Villa
Not part of some time in the first echelon, but wants to return to the first stage of English football. At present it is hard to believe that will promote this season, because lies somewhere in mid-table in the Championship. Since coming coach Steve Bruce, in October, Aston Villa started to have better evolutions and is now 7 points away from a position that may result in the play-off for promotion. In the last two races earned just one point from the draw with Leeds and was defeated by Cardiff. So we expect to see more changes in the first 11 made by coach Bruce. On the list of unavailable for this match with Tottenham players are: Richards, Kodjiji, Laet, Ayewu goalie Steer.
