A spectacular game will start the second day of Week 28, as Tottenham Hotspur will visit Villa Park in a must-win game for the Lilywhites. Match will start on Saturday, March 10, at 12pm CET.
Aston Villa
Two consecutive defeats in February could have derailed the Aston Villa season, but the Birmingham based club shrugged off, won three in a row and sits in fourth place, eight points away from the league leading Liverpool.
The Villans will have to travel to Amsterdam to play Ajax in the Conference League, a tournament they are heavily favored to win. After that, however, armed with the top-4 attack and defense, Aston Villa will try and make a colossal jump towards the Champions League berth next season, if they can get a victory on Sunday.
Tottenham Hotspur
While in the beginning of the season the Lilywhites looked to compete for the championship, recent form leaves Tottenham Hotspur out of contention for top-3. The fourth place, however, is still in play, as the team from London trails Aston Villa by five points, but have an extra game in their backpack.
The issue is that Tottenham alternates winning and either losing or playing to a draw in 2024 and with a victory against Crystal Palace last week, all indicates that they are going to be underdogs in an upcoming bout.
Prediction ⚽️
Aston VIlla went to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the first round and earned a “2-1” victory, as they will look to sweep the season series after their return from Netherlands later this week.
As sportsbooks are being careful, weighing both squads’ chances in a game at Villa Park, we will side with the hosts not suffering a defeat despite a possible fatigue, with 1.53 odds 🔥.
