Aston Villa can be safely attributed to the strong middle peasants of the championship. The team is in 8th place with 36 points in 22 rounds. Given that the Lions have 2 matches in reserve, hosts may even impose a fight for the European Cups. Aston Villa’s current form is no worse than that of Everton and Tottenham. As the last games in the Premier League show, the two-week quarantine was beneficial for the Villans. The team has become much safer to play in their own half of the field, while counter-attacking across the entire width of the field is very dangerous.
Spurs have been seriously addicted lately. In the last round of the championship, they demonstrated their helplessness in the match against Manchester City, losing in all respects to the citizens with a score of 0:3. For Jose Mourinho’s team this is already the fourth defeat in the last five rounds, which makes us talk about a small game crisis at the London club, because Tottenham lost to opponents of different caliber during this period. With a score of 0:1, Londoners lost to Brighton and Chelsea, while Liverpool merged with a result of 1:3. Of course, such a losing streak was immediately reflected in the standings of the Spurs. Mourinho’s wards have moved down to the ninth line. From the same West Ham and Chelsea, which share the fourth position, Tottenham are already six points behind. True, the team still has a match in reserve. Overall, Tottenham are eighth in the division away. For 11 matches on the fields of opponents “Spurs” achieved five victories, lost three matches and drew three times. True, in the last away matches Tottenham were not particularly happy. In seven previous matches, Londoners have beaten only outsider Sheffield United away (2:1). Guests have injured two defenders, that is Serge Aurier and Sergio Regilon, as well as midfielder Giovanni Lo Celso.
