Tottenham and Aston Villa face off amid winless starts

Overview

Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur prepare to face each other at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on September 19, 2026, as both clubs struggle for their first Premier League win of the 2026-27 season. Tottenham currently occupies 17th place with two points and has yet to score a league goal in four matches, while Aston Villa sits in 19th with one point and one goal.

Both teams enter the fixture facing significant injury concerns. Tottenham manager Roberto De Zerbi has confirmed that Pedro Porro, Sandro Tonali, and James Maddison are available, but the squad remains without Dejan Kulusevski, Xavi Simons, Mykhaylo Mudryk, and Wilson Odobert. Aston Villa, led by Unai Emery, is also dealing with squad shortages, including the unavailability of Leon Goretzka and Ian Maatsen.

Villa faces ongoing selection dilemmas regarding Joao Gomes, though Matty Cash has returned to the squad. Potential returns for Villa include Victor Lindelof and Boubacar Kamara, with Emiliano Buendia expected to start.

This match serves as a critical opportunity for both sides to secure their first win of the campaign and climb out of the bottom of the table. Despite the poor start, Unai Emery has expressed confidence in Tottenham’s long-term potential, predicting they will “finish in the top four.”
