Tottenham sit 17th and Aston Villa 19th, separated by a single point after four matches, and the home/away split does not flatter either side. Tottenham have taken just 1 point from their two home games while Aston Villa have 1 point from their two away games, so the table gap is a fair reflection of two struggling teams rather than a venue distortion.

About The Match
This is a meeting of two sides stuck in a winless rut, with Tottenham and Aston Villa both yet to record a league victory this season. The most telling number is Aston Villa's 4 wins in the last 5 meetings at this ground, a head-to-head edge that cuts against Tottenham's status as the market's narrow favourite. The key uncertainty is whether either attack can break its scoring drought: Tottenham have failed to score in all four league matches, while Aston Villa have managed just one goal all season.
