Fixture Focus - Spurs (8 Jan 2017)

Tottenham Hotspur vs Aston Villa FC
(FA Cup, Third Round)

This season's FA Cup campaign for Spurs has started, and first on the list would be at home against Championship side Aston Villa.

Spurs are going into this game following a string of 3 league victories during the infamous Christmas Crunch period, including the famous win against Chelsea. There might be a slight shake up to the lineup, as we all know our priority is still on the EPL. I would expect this Sunday's game to be made up of 1/2 to 3/4 of first teamers.

Aston Villa, who are currently 12th in the Championship, are well-rested for this coming fixture since their last game against Cardiff on 2 Jan 2017. With no major injury concerns, they would probably be sending their first team to the Lane.

COYS!
