In the 8th round of the Premier League, Aston Villa defeated Tottenham 2-1 away from home and won five consecutive victories in all competitions.

After Villa got rid of the slump at the beginning of the season, it is now a period of hot form. Next, Villa will face the underdogs Advance Eagles and Maccabi Tel Aviv in the Europa League. However, in the three rounds of the Premier League during this period, they will challenge the 2/3/4 places in the standings: Manchester City, Liverpool and Bournemouth.

It is worth mentioning that before the match against Villa, Tottenham and Manchester City, Liverpool and Bournemouth were ranked 2-5 in the Premier League. It was precisely because of the loss in this game that Tottenham fell out of the top 4.
