Villa v Spurs

SuprSi

Alright lads, massive game for us. Win and we cement ourselves as serious top 4 challengers, draw and we don't look too bad, lose and the win against Wigan doesn't mean much. Villa are one of our biggest challengers and it's very important for us to maintain momentum and stay ahead of City & Villa. Also, Arsenal have Chelsea so we could move 3 ahead of them.

How do you think the game will go?

Villa are very decent, not doubt about that. I think we will score, but I think they will too , Id go with a 2-2 draw.

Hope im wrong obviously.

KingdomYid

avoiding defeat here is so important,we have a chance with the form of Lennon and Defoe but i will be happy with a draw.

keane=cock

fancy us to win by the odd goal in 3!

(2-1 if you cant work that out!!)

Seillejet

We rally need to be solid. Our record against Villa isnt bad though. Im much more confident with Palacios in the side.Id be happy with a draw as I think Young could have a field day against Corluka. That said we are a threat going forward after our lucky nine goals

RichMc70

For a change I'm going against my pessimistic nature and going for a good away win.

JD and Lennon are on fire at the moment and I reckon Villa will not be able to handle them.

Heart = Villa 1 Spurs 2

What ever happens, I think it's gonna be a cracking game.

It's going to be a big come down from last week if we lose this one,but we shouldn't lose it,we're every bit as good if not better than Villa imo.a 2-1 win would be just great.

I'd go for 2-2 or maybe 3-2 to us. I'd pick two goals from midfield and Robbie to play a stormer off the bench.

Big game for us. I reckon a lot hinges on the first goal here. The Villa fans are very quick to turn on their own if things are'nt going their way. Their home record over the last 6-9 months isn't as good as it should be and I think they perform much better away from home. If we nick the first goal we've a great chance. I think it will finish 1-1 though.

my sentiments exactly.

lets hope lennon and defoe destroy them and gomes has a good game cause I think he will be kept busy.

We had our win at Villa Park earlier this year, we will not win there 2 times in a row.

2-1 to home team, lucky set pieces with Spurs playing all the football.

Aston Villa 1 Spurs 6
I have seen what we are capable of. Seriously, I would be happy with a draw out of this one

everdead.ie

Warnock is a much better full back then edman and lennon won't be afforded as much space so i'm hoping we nick this 2-1 but i'm really hoping for a clean sheet

I think he only trained with the kids this morning, so id say it will be another week or so before we see him.

Seillejet

Good news that we have a player of modrics class to come back in though. Im very apprehensive about this game to be honest.

everdead.ie

So we can finish the day in second if results where to go our way i.e portsmouth to beat united and of course we win. Be a nice day if it happens

Nice one, I hope you get to sing that!!

All my instincts tell me that we'll play nice football but Villa score a couple from a corner and a scramble from a long high ball knocked down by Heskey!

However going with my heart & being positive, we go out there and play them off the park and they can't handle it. 3-1 Spurs!

If you didn't know already, the Irish villa supporters club are going over, so there'll be 50 irish in the holte end, sure to make a bit of noise. I'm leaving now in a few, going on the 1.10 aer lingus flight.

It'll be very difficult. I'd say 1-1 or 2-1.

I'd take a score draw but just have this funny feeling that we're gonna nick it 2-1.

Me too. Hope we're not in for a disappointment after last week's performance. I'm just being realistic.

Seillejet

Come on lads bit of positivity. We will take a draw but a win will really set down a marker.
