With all eyes falling on north London this weekend, Tottenham and Aston Villa will look to extend on their respective FA Cup adventures when they meet on Saturday evening.
While Villa might have eventually been forced to settle for a single point when they travelled to the capital in midweek, Unai Emery’s men are enjoying what has become an historic fairytale and they will be confident of making an FA Cup statement here.
Suffering last-gasp heartbreak earlier in the week, Spurs find themselves at the heart of what has become another extended rut and the pressure on Thomas Frank’s shoulders has now reached a boiling point.
In what looks set to be a thrilling FA Cup battle on Saturday evening, we have taken a glance at some of the most attractive Tottenham vs Aston Villa Bet Builder Tips.
A golden opportunity for Villa
While some in Aston Villa’s camp might have been frustrated earlier in the week as they had to settle for a 0-0 stalemate away at Crystal Palace, Emery’s men should be relishing an immediate return to the capital.
Although Saturday’s guests might have opened up the 2025/26 campaign in the midst of a minor wobble, the former PSG boss has seen his record-breaking squad come roaring back in some style.
Getting the New Year underway with a 3-1 victory at home against Nottingham Forest, Villa are sat in bronze medal position among England’s elite and they appear to be cruising their way to a lucrative Champions League return.
Suffering just a single defeat from any of their previous 14 appearances across all formats, Emery’s side will also be excited by their most recent trip to the white half of North London.
Landing a 2-1 win when they last travelled to Tottenham back on October 19th, Villa will be confident of claiming a heavyweight FA Cup scalp here.

A must-win battle for Frank
While there might have been plenty of excitement around the white half of north London following Frank’s arrival, Spurs have come crashing back down to earth in a nightmare fashion.
Hit with stoppage-time frustration earlier in the week as they eventually fell to a 3-2 loss away at Bournemouth, Tottenham are firmly stuck in the bottom-half of the Premier League table.
In fact, Spurs have astonishingly registered just a pair of wins from any of their previous 13 domestic appearances across all competitions – a rut that stems all the way back to October 26th.
Rightfully coming under a huge amount of recent scrutiny and breaking plenty of unwanted records, the former Brentford boss has now seen the pressure on his shoulders reach a major boiling point.
With some suggesting that an FA Cup exit on Saturday evening could be the final nail in Frank’s north London coffin, Spurs have also recorded just a sole Premier League win in front of their own supporters since the opening weekend.

Keep an eye out for Rogers
While the red-hot Ollie Watkins might have enjoyed quite the free-scoring run on either side of opening the New Year, he is not the only England international who finds his stock at a real high.
Despite notching just a single Premier League strike prior to returning from November’s international break Morgan Rogers has since registered nine direct goal contributions (six goals, three assists) in his previous 12 outings across all competitions.
Expected to be part of Thomas Tuchel’s World Cup squad this summer, the ex-Middlesbrough starlet also recorded consecutive braces against Manchester United and West Ham last month.
Looking to cash in on a leaky Tottenham defence who have remarkably recorded just a sole clean sheet from any of their previous nine home fixtures against Premier League opposition, Rogers should also be excited by a stellar recent record against Saturday’s opponents.
Along with finding the net during Villa’s 2-1 victory away at Spurs on October 19th, Villa’s attacking star has bagged back-to-back strikes against Tottenham.
