In what looks like it could be a season-defining showdown from the Midlands on Sunday night, Aston Villa will Tottenham to the Midlands.
Getting their Europa League semi-final adventure underway with a toothless performance at the City Ground in midweek, Unai Emery’s men return to home soil this weekend seeking a much-welcomed domestic boost.
While Tottenham might have put a maiden Premier League victory on the board last time out, Spurs still remain stuck in the relegation zone and they travel to the Midlands this weekend with a huge amount of pressure on their shoulders.
Ahead of Sunday’s crucial Premier League showdown, we have taken a glance at some of the most attractive Aston Villa vs Tottenham Bet Builder Tips.
Villa seeking a domestic response
Missing out on the chance to claim a first-leg advantage as they opened their Europa League semi-final adventure with a 1-0 loss away at bitter local rivals Nottingham Forest, Aston Villa will be seeking for an essential boost here.
Falling to another 1-0 defeat away at Fulham last weekend and hit with back-to-back losses across all competitions for the first time since the start of March, Emery’s side will be excited to make a return to home soil here.
Last seen in the Midlands dragging themselves to what was a pulsating 4-3 victory against Sunderland, the one-time Arsenal boss has seen his squad win all of their previous four straight showdowns at Villa Park by an aggregate score of 12-3.
Pencilled in as a standout contender on Sunday night, Villa will be looking to take a giant leap towards booking a lucrative Champions League return.
It should also be highlighted, Emery’s camp have suffered just a single Premier League defeat in front of their own supporters since back on February 1st.

Another cup final for Spurs
Dragging themselves to a maiden Premier League victory of 2026 last weekend as they snatched a hard-fought 1-0 victory away at an already-relegated Wolves, Tottenham face what is essentially another cup final.
While Roberto De Zerbi might have only arrived in north London last month, the former Brighton boss is more than aware that he has a monumental job on his hands in the English capital.
Remarkably opening this weekend’s fixtures sat two points adrift of top-flight safety, Spurs are in an almighty battle to avoid what would be one of the Premier League’s most infamous relegations.
Heading into March’s International break with a woeful 3-0 drumming at home against fellow relegation scrappers Nottingham Forest, Tottenham have a huge amount of pressure on their shoulders once again this weekend.
Including a 2-0 loss when they travelled to the Midlands 12 months ago, Spurs have also lost three of their last four domestic trips to Villa Park across all competitions.

Watkins’ late World Cup charge
Completely omitted from Thomas Tuchel’s England squad during March’s international break, it appears that Ollie Watkins has a real uphill battle on his hands in the race to feature at this summer’s World Cup.
However, despite making his frustrations clear, the former Brentford striker has his sights set on mounting a late charge for North America and has enjoyed an impressive run at Villa Park.
Putting in a Man of the Match performance and bagging a Premier League during Villa’s thrilling 4-3 victory against against Sunderland on April 19th, Watkins has now notched six goals in his last seven outings across all fronts.
Bagging three goals in Villa’s back-to-back Europa League quarter-finals showdowns against Bologna this month, Watkins looks set to spearhead Emery’s charge once again here.
It should also be highlighted, the England international has registered six direct goal contributions in his last five matchups at Villa Park (four goals, two assists).
