Aston Villa is on track for their best season in 30 years, currently fourth with 55 points from 27 matches. A win over Tottenham could significantly advance them to the Champions League. Despite being eight points behind Liverpool, they are also advancing in the Europa Conference League 1/8 Finals.

Tottenham, struggling to win silverware, made significant changes in the summer. They are five points away from Aston Villa, potentially deciding their UCL and Cup participation next season.

Jacob Ramsey, a 22-year-old midfielder, is on the injury list, likely to miss three to four weeks. Diego Carlos, Boubacar Kamara, Jhon Duran, Tyrone Mings, and Emiliano Buendia are also sidelined. Aston Villa’s ECL game is unlikely.

Ryan Sessegnon, Fraser Forster, Manor Solomon, Pedro Porro, and Richarlison will be sidelined due to missed games. Coach Ange Postecoglu praised his players’ reaction after a 3:1 win over Crystal Palace, citing their fitness level.

Predicted lineups:

Aston Villa

Goalkeeper: Emiliano Martinez
Defenders: Matty Cash, Ezri Konsa, Clément Lenglet, Lucas Digne
Midfielders: Douglas Luiz, Youri Tielemans, John McGinn
