Aston Villa vs Tottenham Hotspur prediction and betting tips on May 16, 2025
Game Prediction
Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur will play in the 37th round of the English Premier League on May 16, 2025. It is unlikely that the guests will try hard in Birmingham.
Our prediction for the match Aston Villa vs Tottenham Hotspur
The team from Birmingham, building on the success of the last but one season, overtook its current rival from London in 2023/2024. As a result, Emery managed to take 4th, “Champions League” place, although his footballers, at the same time, played in the Conference League for the lion’s share of the season. Still, Postecoglou also left a generally positive impression when, without Kane, who had left for Bayern, the club fought for a place in the quartet until the very end.
Now, Ange will play one of his last matches in office. It goes without saying that there is the Europa League, where the team managed to get to the final (it beat Bodo/Glimt in the semi-finals both at the home arena and on the away field). Still, there have been too many failures in the native tournaments, from the defeat in the League Cup semi-final made by Liverpool to the worst performance in the Premier League in decades – the club scores a little more than a point per round. Crystal Palace also beat the team with a 0-2 score in the previous round. Watkins and the company tried to succeed everywhere. As a result, they lost by 1 goal to PSG in the quarter-finals of their debut Champions League cycle and suddenly failed with a 0-3 score in the meeting with Crystal Palace. All that remains is the Premier League, where the footballers are trying, with varying success, to hold on to the positions of the previous year. It is reasonable to mention that the previous round brought an important victory in the confrontation with Bournemouth – 1-0.
Unai’s wards manage to score 1.56 goals on average per round. Still, they also concede 1.36 goals in response (and this happens with Emi Martinez in goal, who has been recognized as the best among goalkeepers more than once). The grandee from the capital of England, even hanging around the relegation zone, has got excellent statistics – 1.75/1.64.

One needs to beat such guests with a margin, especially when there is a fight for the Champions League. It makes sense to bet on the victory of Emery’s footballers with “a -1.0 goal handicap” (odd: 1.6).
