Tottenham are sliding backwards with very few signs that they can reverse the momentum as they prepare to face Aston Villa in the Premier League this weekend.

Spurs were humiliated by rivals Arsenal at the weekend. They lost 3-0 but it was the manner of defeat that will have alarmed fans and Nuno Espirito Santo alike.

Expect several technically-gifted names to be chopped out of the team on the back of that display, and expect a tense atmosphere at the new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Aston Villa are creeping into form following a disappointing start to the new campaign. They creaked under the weight of their 'dark horses' label without Jack Grealish around to help bear the load.

Back-to-back wins over top-five pair Everton and Manchester United – without conceding a goal – have put Villa back on the radar for neutrals and another victory here would fling them into the elite mix.

Our prediction: Tottenham v Aston Villa

Spurs' heads dropped on Sunday – that's more worrying than any result. They limped out of the gates and were rightly punished by a side who wanted it more.

Villa saw that. Villa know they're going up against a disjointed, dispirited, dysfunctional side and will seek to exploit that.

Dean Smith has worked wonders at Villa Park and, with his defence tightening up and attackers back to fitness, he could leave London after a thoroughly professional, calculated raid for all three points.

Our prediction: Tottenham 0-1 Aston Villa (11/1 at bet365).
