Fixture Focus - Spurs (26 Dec 2012)

Aston Villa FC vs Tottenham Hotspur

A Merry Christmas to you all! 

And with this holiday season marks the start of a period of frantic football fixtures known (to me) as the "Christmas Crunch".

Spurs will be travelling away to Aston Villa after the home draw with Stoke over the weekend. Good early news for us Spurs fans as we may see the return of Assou-Ekotto and a possible first start for Parker, who has been coming on as a subsitute for the past few games. Dempsey is a doubt due to his injury and we are not sure whether he can make it for the team bus.

Villa had endured a trouncing by Chelsea last night despite their good performance against Liverpool just 10 days earlier. Goalkeeper Guzan would definitely want to put that debacle at the back of his mind and instead concentrate against us. Lambert is hoping that the trio of Vlaar, Agbonlahor and N'Zogbia is fit enough for this clash after their absence in the Chelsea game.

A spectacular Boxing Day game coming up. COYS!!!!!
