Tottenham vs Aston Villa LIVE SCORE: Latest updates as Spurs host Emery’s side in Premier League clash

TOTTENHAM host Aston Villa in what should be a cracker of a match-up in the Premier League today.

The big news is James Maddison‘s absence from Ange Postecoglou‘s starting XI, with Pape Mate Sarr taking his place in midfield.

Villa can leap above Arsenal and Nottingham Forest into third with a win, but will be confident in doing so after walking away from North London with a 2-1 win last season.
