Aston Villa vs Tottingham Pre-Match Thread - Sunday 16th 2pm

[Toronto Villa]

We have to take the game to Spurs. They blow hot and cold so we have a chance with the right attitude to get a positive result.

I'll go 2-1 to us - Ally and Jack

I'd love us to dick these Cockney wankers.

[ChicagoLion]

They have pace, which is a problem for us.
They are vulnerable at the back though.
I can see a few goals 2 2

When I was really young about 7 or 8 I vaguely remember liking spurs, when they got to cup finals with at Ardilles and Ricky Villa. That turned into a growing irrational or maybe rational absolute dislike for them for them as an adult.

They’ve always had an over inflated opinion of themselves and even now with their fancy new ground, there going through a relative golden period in their recent history and have still won f**k all.

Couple all of the above with the points and pyschological advantage a win would give us over our relegation rivals, I really hope with stuff this lot on Sunday.

I’m well up for it, bloody hope the players, an irrational 3-1 villa, Samatta hat trick. Boom.

We can make history in this one, apparently. First time we'll have won home games on every day of the week in a league and cup season.

Monday: Newcastle
Tuesday: Watford, Liverpool and Leicester
Wednesday: Wolves
Thursday: Norwich
Friday: Everton
Saturday: Brighton
Sunday:

It would also give such a boost to the team and fans if we can get all 3 points.
Need to make a lot of noise to help the team over the line.

i know its an early k/o but can we try and get the place rocking from the off !!!

[Pete3206]

They have too much space I'm afraid.

1-3

[sid1964]

Hope we win - but I can see this ending 1-1

[maidstonevillain]

Very nervous about this game. I know it is only one game, and not against a relegation rival. But I really believe if we win it we will stay up, and if we lose it we will be relegated.

I reckon a draw is on the cards. Not sure losing would be as catastrophic as you fear but I share your nerves.
I’m going 2-2

[Legion]

D 1-1.

[Chipsticks]

I'm slightly concerned we could be in for another storm, travelling up from London first thing in the morning so could really do without train delays.

2-1 Villa win

Forecast for the weekend is shocking, particularly Saturday. Coming up from South Wales for the game so if there's a decision to be made I hope it's made early.......
