Tottenham most on-form Aston Villa in a tricky return to Premier League action after the international break.

It could prove an occasion to remember for Spurs, too, as they look to celebrate Fabio Paratici’s return to the club as co-sporting director with three points.

Villa make the trip from Birmingham into London having won four on the spin. They were made to wait for their day in the sun, though, after going winless in their first six outings fo the campaign.

They did not even manage to score until their fifth match of the campaign, where they were knocked out of the Carabao Cup by Brentford on penalties.

Since clicking into gear last month, Villa have been a force. They have charted commanding wins over Feyenoord and Fulham, but on Saturday will face comfortably the toughest tests of their season so far.

Tottenham vs Aston Villa prediction

Frank’s injury-hit Tottenham will have their work cut out for them as Villa visit north London this weekend.

After a concerningly slow start to the campaign, the Villans have hit superb form, heading into the international break having won four on the trot.

Spurs have all the tools they need to hold their own against the high-flying Villans, though, and with the home crowd at their backs, should have few problems.
