Stan Collymore has stated on Twitter that Harry Kane and John McGinn will be key players for Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa respectively in the final games of the season.

The Premier League is set to resume this week, with Tottenham aiming to finish in the top four of the table and Villa aiming to avoid the dreaded drop to the Championship.

The former Villa striker believes that Kane’s return to fitness and availability for the rest of the games this season will give the Tottenham dressing room a huge lift, and that he will be Jose Mourinho’s “job saver”.

Collymore has also stated that the return to action of Scotland international midfielder John McGinn will boost Dean Smith’s side’s chances of staving off the drop to the Championship.

The former Liverpool striker has underlined the impact that Troy Deeney will make for Watford, as the Hornets themselves try to finish above the relegation zone in the Premier League table this season.

Villa will take on Sheffield United at Villa park on Wednesday, while Tottenham will face Manchester United at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Friday and Watford will lock horns with Leicester City on Saturday.
