Tottenham vs Aston Villa live: Emery’s side after political storm

It has been a strange and perhaps taxing week for Aston Villa, sparking a political storm after announcing they had been advised to ban Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters from attending next month’s Europa League tie. Here’s the full story.

After rivals Arsenal moved back to the top of the Premier League table last night, Tottenham will be hoping to reduce the gap to two points as they look to continue a seven-match unbeaten run into the meeting with Aston Villa – but the hosts’ disappointing home form in 2025 after a week dominated by the political storm surrounding their Europa League clash with Maccabi Tel Aviv Will give hope of victory on the road.

Kick-off at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is at 2pm BST.
