"Starting with the hosts, getting a new era underway over the summer following Thomas Frank's arrival in north London, Tottenham appear to be enjoying life under the former Brentford boss. Heading into October's international break with a 2-1 victory away at Premier League returners Leeds, Spurs mark their return this weekend sat in bronze medal position. Getting their Champions League adventure underway with a 1-0 win at home against Spanish outfit Villarreal,"
"All still dealing with respective knee injuries, Tottenham will once again be without the trio of Yves Bissouma, Dejan Kulusevski and England international James Maddison this weekend. Likewise, drastically failing to find his feet since completing a loan switch from PSG, Randal Kolo Muani remains a doubt. Making a real impact after arriving from German giants Bayern Munich back in August, former Fulham ace Joao Palhinha will start in the middle of the park."
Tottenham return from the international break to host Aston Villa, occupying third place after a 2-1 win at Leeds and a 1-0 Champions League victory over Villarreal. Tottenham have suffered only one defeat in their first ten matches across all competitions and aim for a top-four finish after winning the Europa League last season. Spurs remain without Yves Bissouma, Dejan Kulusevski and James Maddison due to knee injuries, while Randal Kolo Muani is doubtful. Joao Palhinha will start in midfield and Cristian Romero will partner Micky van de Ven in defense. Aston Villa enter the game following a 2-1 win over Burnley.
