Tottenham Hotspur host Aston Villa at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London in a Premier League fixture that finds both clubs in uncomfortable territory near the foot of the table.

Roberto De Zerbi's side have made another sluggish start to the 2026-27 campaign. Spurs sit 17th in the Premier League, and questions are already mounting about their ability to string together the kind of consistent performances De Zerbi's system demands. The Italian remains backed by the club, but patience among supporters is being tested.

Aston Villa arrive in north London carrying their own concerns. Unai Emery's men are 19th in the standings, and while a 3-1 Carabao Cup win over Coventry City on September 16 offered some relief, their league form has been poor. Villa have lost two of their last three Premier League outings.

There is a subplot worth watching at Villa Park this week. Alejandro Garnacho, the Chelsea loanee who arrived with considerable fanfare in the summer, was an unused substitute against Coventry. Emery has been direct in his assessment, stating the Argentine winger is behind his teammates in fitness and needs to close that gap before he can expect regular minutes.

On the Tottenham side, Mykhailo Mudryk has returned from a lengthy ban following his move from Chelsea but has since picked up an injury, adding to a list of absentees that is complicating De Zerbi's selection options. Reports have also emerged linking Spurs with a move for free agent Mauro Icardi as the club looks to address a goal-scoring problem.

Tammy Abraham, by contrast, is making a strong case for himself at Villa. The English striker scored twice in the Carabao Cup win over Coventry, responding directly to summer transfer speculation by staking his claim for a starting role under Emery.
