Tottenham Hotspur vs Aston Villa Prediction: 4/1 Kudus to create more magic

Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa will both be looking to pick up where they left off prior to the international break as the two sides lock horns at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday afternoon (14:00 BST, live on Sky Sports Main Event).

Spurs have impressed so far under Thomas Frank and are flying high in third after picking up 14 points from their first seven games, while Unai Emery's side have enjoyed a mini-resurgence after a poor start to the season, winning each of their last four games across all competitions. Read on for our Tottenham Hotspur vs Aston Villa predictions, as well as the latest team news and match odds.

Team News

Randal Kolo Muani has missed recent matches due to a dead leg but the Paris Saint-Germain loanee returned to training over the international break so could feature here.

Yves Bissouma is yet to kick a competitive ball for Spurs this season and picked up another injury whilst on international duty with Mali, having to be stretchered off the pitch.

Radu Dragusin and Dejan Kulusevski are both still recovering from a long-term knee injuries and James Maddison remains sidelined with a ruptured ACL.

As for Villa, Ollie Watkins availability remains unclear after the forward withdrew from the England squad due to injury. However, Amadou Onana returned to the fold against Burnley prior to the international break, so should feature again here.

Tyrone Mings missed the matches against Feyenoord and Burnley with an ankle injury, and Youri Tielemans remains absent with a calf problem.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Aston Villa Odds

Spurs are 23/20 favourites for Sunday's contest, giving them an implied win probability of 46.5%, while Villa and the draw are both 5/2.

Richarlison currently tops the anytime goalscorer market at 6/4, while Watkins is shortest-priced for the visitors at 9/5.

Player Assists a Goal - Mohammed Kudus @ 4/1

No player has assisted more goals in the Premier League this season than Mohammed Kudus.

We correctly tipped the former West Ham United man to grab an assist in Spurs' win against Leeds before the international break, and we think that same bet will land again on Sunday.

Kudus has impressed hugely since his summer move from the London Stadium, and this pick has plenty of value at 4/1.

Player to Receive a Card - Cristian Romero @ 21/10

The Spurs skipper is sure to be at the heart of the action on Sunday - as he is most weeks - as he's played every minute of the Premier League campaign so far.

The fiery centre-back is always a decent option for the cards market - he's been cautioned three times across seven league matches, so we think he'll find his way into the referee's notebook once again here.

The 27-year-old struggled with injuries last term but still picked up five bookings in 26 appearances for Spurs, so he looks a decent pick at 21/10.
