Aston Villa vs Tottenham Prediction
Both teams were tied 1-1 wins last season with each one winning on the road. Aston Villa is 4-1 in its last 5 meetings against Tottenham and the over is 8-1 in their last 9 meetings.
In this Aston Villa vs Tottenham Prediction, Tottenham is coming as +110 home favorites. Both teams have been terrible so far this season, with one and two points in four games and their offenses have been atrocious. Tottenham has not scored a single goal in four games and Aston Villa just one and as a result their 7 of their 8 total games played combined this season have gone under the total. I don’t expect those offenses to suddenly wake up, so take the under 2.5 goals in this one.
