Tottenham stitched together a seven-game unbeaten run across September and October, recording six wins in the process. However, Spurs started the month of November with a disappointing 4-1 defeat against Chelsea, before losing out to Wolves on November 11. Ange Postecoglou’s side took the lead through Brennan Johnson’s third-minute opener, but the Wanderers netted twice in the injury time courtesy of Pablo Sarabia and Mario Lamina, and thereby handed Spurs their second league defeat of the season. Johnson’s early strike at Molineux Stadium at least ensured that the Lilywhites would extend their Premier League scoring streak to a whopping 24 matches since the 1-0 loss to Wolves in March. Meanwhile, Spurs have won four of their last five top flight fixtures at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Aston villa, on the other hand, began the month of November with a 2-0 league defeat against Nottingham Forest, but Villa were quick to bounce back with back-to-back wins over AZ Alkmaar and Fulham in the Europa Conference League and English top flight respectively. Unai Emery’s men recorded their eighth Premier League win against Fulham on November 11 thanks to Antonee Robinson’s 27th-minute own goal, and one goal each from John McGinn and Ollie Watkins. It was their seventh victory from last ten outings across all competitions, scoring 25 goals and conceding 11 times in the period. Boasting an unassailable four-point lead over Manchester United, the Lions are also just five points shy of leaders Arsenal, who have played 13 matches.
Tottenham Hotspur probable starting lineup: Vicario, Porro, Dier, Davies, Udogie, Hojbjerg, Skipp, Bentancur, Kulusevski, Son, Johnson
Aston Villa probable starting lineup: Martinez, Cash, Konsa, Torres, Digne, McGinn, Kamara, Luiz, Bailey, Diaby, Watkins
