Aston Villa v Tottenham Hotspur Pre-Match Thread

[supertom]

Fast becoming the team I dislike the most, especially because everyone I work with seems to support them and they (the workers) are such annoying tossers you wouldn't believe.

Son back for 2nd game this season (renewed his ST then he got a saturday job, typical) and the last one he saw was the cup game but think we're improving so going draw, at least its a start.

The majority of Spurs fans I know are complete toss fucks. It's hard to like that club, very hard, especially as a modicum of success has turned them from dreary moaning buggers to arrogant ass wipes.

2-0 Spurs.

A penalty and free kick, all before half time.

Might get a point which really pisses me off as I dislike the spuds intensely.
Think their fans need reminding how bad they were pre wide boy days
Bollocks, changed me mind we'll stuff em 2-0 as bales bunked of to spain!!

We seem to be breaking some of our long held runs this season, the latest one was the 0-0 against Hull.
Here's two more I like us to remedy on Sunday:-

o  have not won successive Premier League home games in a single season since August 2010.

o  have not kept a clean sheet in the last 14 Premier League home games, conceding 25 goals in that run.

2-1 Benteke 76, 82  Defoe 68

UTV!!

[Mortimer's Bear]

3-1

Benteke, Agbonlahor (2)

[villan from luton]

I went 3-1 elsewhere earlier, Gabby, Benteke and Delph

[cheltenhamlion]

I could have read this from the start. I wont. Villa 3 - Spudz 2.

[gervilla]

I get every prediction arseways so hopefully that will continue.
2-3.

[damon loves JT]

I have a feeling that the stupid long break will leave us flat-footed and a goal down before we know what we're doing.

I know mate. Tbh there is not much to dislike about them, more of a personal dislike of London tbh for me.

My 6 year old lad is a mascot for this. He reckons he will give the players some advice before the game so you can all fear not.  6-0 to The Villa.

[Matt Collins]

If you took a purely statistical look at form, it looks like a low scoring game, probably 1-1. Spurs have averaged almost a goal a game and only scored two once. But they don't concede many.

We've generally not conceded more than one in many games.

But our record v spurs is very poor. We struggle to score and that may happen again. And you have to think spurs will improve their goal scoring soon.

Could go either way I reckon. But I'm expecting a performance a bit like the city game. I don't expect us to have lots of the ball

[Mister E]

It's a pity WSpam turned them over so comprehensively last time, really; that'll have put them on their mettle.
I cannot see us not scoring .... but can we get through the first 30 minutes without conceding at least one goal?

[Jimbo]

After the pomp of Hull away, we'll be taken down a peg. Defeat by two clear goals.
