Tottenham Hotspur vs Aston Villa is the next match in the Premier League in Villa Park, Birmingham on Saturday as Spurs look to continue their recent winning run as they face Aston Villa.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Aston Villa: Match Preview:

Both Arsenal and Manchester United are in action before Antonio Conte's team this weekend, against Brighton and Everton respectively, meaning Tottenham will at least know their standing for fourth place before kick-off.

Steven Gerrard's Villa have fallen to three defeats in a row in recent weeks and sit 11th going into this round of matches.

Team News:

Tottenham Hotspur:

For Spurs, Japhet Tanganga is out for the season following knee surgery, while Ryan Sessegnon (thigh) and Oliver Skipp (groin) remain unavailable for selection.

Sessegnon is now back in training but unlikely to be a part of the squad for this contest, with Conte remaining cautious over the youngster's return.

The visitors will be boosted by the return of Sergio Reguilon from a knee injury, although the Spaniard could find himself on the bench due to the performance of Emerson Royal against Newcastle.

There are not expected to be any surprises in the away side's XI this weekend, with Kane, Son Heung-min and Dejan Kulusevski continuing as the front three in a 3-4-3 formation.

Aston Villa:

Gerrard said during his press conference that Marvelous Nakamba will come back into the squad this weekend after playing 60 minutes for the Under-23s, while Kortney Hause (abdominal) and Lucas Digne (illness) are also both available.

Danny Ings is also likely to return for the home side, having missed out against Wolves last time out due to the birth of his child, and the forward could feature alongside Ollie Watkins in attack.

Douglas Luiz is also expected to return in the middle of the park, potentially replacing Morgan Sanson, while Philippe Coutinho will feature as the number 10 for the home side on Saturday.
