Tips for creating bets Tottenham vs Aston Villa: FA Cup 4/1 special, analysis and predictions

With all eyes on north London this weekend, Tottenham and Aston Villa will look to extend their respective FA Cup adventures when they meet on Saturday night.

While Villa might have been forced to settle for a single point when they traveled to the capital in midweek, Unai Emery’s men are enjoying what has become a historic fairytale and will be sure to make a statement in the FA Cup here.

After suffering last-gasp heartbreak earlier in the week, Spurs find themselves in the heart of what has become another protracted grind and the pressure on Thomas Frank’s shoulders has now reached a boiling point.

In what looks set to be an exciting FA Cup battle on Saturday night, we’ve taken a look at some of the hottest betting tips between Tottenham and Aston Villa.

A golden opportunity for Villa

While some in the Aston Villa camp may have been frustrated earlier in the week at having to settle for a 0-0 draw at Crystal Palace, Emery’s men should be enjoying an immediate return to the capital.

Although Saturday’s guests might have opened the 2025/26 campaign amid a bit of a wobble, the former PSG boss has seen his record-breaking team come roaring back in some style.

Starting the New Year with a 3-1 home win against Nottingham Forest, Villa occupy the bronze medal position among England’s elite and appear to be cruising towards a lucrative return to the Champions League.

Having suffered just one defeat in any of their previous 14 appearances across all formats, Emery’s side will also be excited about their most recent trip to the white half of North London.

With a 2-1 win in their last trip to Tottenham on October 19, Villa will be sure of a heavyweight FA Cup title here.

A battle Frank must win

While there may have been plenty of excitement in the white half of north London following Frank’s arrival, Spurs have returned to earth in nightmarish form.

Hit by frustration in stoppage time earlier in the week when they finally fell to a 3-2 defeat at Bournemouth, Tottenham are firmly stuck in the bottom half of the Premier League table.

In fact, Spurs have surprisingly recorded just a pair of wins in any of their 13 previous domestic appearances in all competitions, a routine stretching back to October 26.

No wonder, under a lot of recent scrutiny and breaking many unwanted records, the former Brentford boss has now seen the pressure on his shoulders reach a major boiling point.

With some suggesting an FA Cup exit on Saturday night could be the final nail in Frank’s coffin in north London, Spurs have also recorded just a single Premier League win in front of their own fans since the opening weekend.

Keep an eye out for Rogers

While red-hot Ollie Watkins might have enjoyed a good run of goals either side of the New Year’s opener, he is not the only England international to find his stock at a really high level.

Despite scoring just one goal in the Premier League before returning from the November international break, Morgan Rogers has since recorded nine direct goal contributions (six goals, three assists) in his previous 12 appearances in all competitions.

The former Middlesbrough star is expected to be part of Thomas Tuchel’s World Cup squad this summer and also recorded back-to-back braces against Manchester United and West Ham last month.

Looking to capitalize on a weak Tottenham defense that has surprisingly only recorded a single clean sheet in any of its previous nine home games against Premier League opposition, Rogers should also be excited by a stellar recent record against Saturday’s opponents.

As well as finding the net during Villa’s 2-1 win over Spurs on October 19, Villa’s star attacker has scored back-to-back goals against Tottenham.
