Here is how we predict Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa will line up this weekend:

To be played on Sunday 8th January 2017 at 16:00. Venue: White Hart Lane,

Odds: Tottenham 1/4, Draw 9/2, Aston Villa 9/1

Tottenham Hotspur welcome Aston Villa to White Hart Lane on Sunday for their FA Cup third round clash.

Spurs are currently pushing for a top-four finish in the Premier League but they have the strength in depth to challenge in all remaining competitions between now and May.

While the majority of the players that started for Tottenham against Chelsea are likely to be given a rest, they should have enough to defeat a Villa side pushing hard for a return to the top flight after their woeful campaign last time out.

In early team news, Tottenham look set to be without Erik Lamela but they have an otherwise clean bill of health.

A number of the club’s next generation will be looking to feature, with Cameron Carter-Vickers, Josh Onomah and Georges-Kevin N’Koudou all expected to start.

Michel Vorm should get the nod over Hugo Lloris in goal while Kieran Trippier and Ben Davies should start in place of Kyle Walker and Danny Rose.

With all that in mind here is how we expect Tottenham and Villa to line up at the weekend:
