Tottenham Hotspur Preview – Can Nuno’s Spurs avoid a fourth straight league loss?
Nuno Espirito Santo has had an indifferent time since leaving Wolverhampton Wanderers for the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Tottenham Hotspur made a blistering start to their Premier League season, securing a hat-trick of wins to go top after three games.
Since starting with successive 1-0 victories over Manchester City, Wolves and Watford, things have rapidly gone downhill for Spurs. After returning from the September break, Nuno’s men crashed to a 3-0 defeat at Selhurst Park. They then lost by the same scoreline to Chelsea at home. Tottenham’s misery was compounded with a 3-1 defeat to rivals Arsenal in the north London derby last weekend.
Tottenham responded well in the UEFA Europa Conference League on Thursday, thumping Mura 5-1, but the real test will be on Sunday. Can Spurs get back to winning ways in the Premier League?
Aston Villa Preview – Can the Villans make it three in a row?
Aston Villa have been up to their old tricks again, starting the season with three wins from their opening six in the Premier League. After losing at Watford on the opening weekend, the Villans have bounced back by taking ten points from a possible 15.
Aston Villa have just had a fortnight to remember. On 18th September, Dean Smith’s men thumped Everton 3-0 at Villa Park. Then last weekend, a late Kortney Hause header earned Villa a stunning 1-0 victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford.
