How to watch Aston Villa vs Tottenham – Premier League kick-off time, TV channel and team news
Tottenham Hotspur are back under the lights this Friday night, as Ange Postecoglou’s men travel to Villa Park in what is their final league game before their decisive Europa League final matchup. Here’s how to watch the clash between Tottenham and Aston Villa on Friday.
Tottenham Hotspur return to Premier League action later this week, after the league granted Spurs’ request to have the fixture against Aston Villa rescheduled to accommodate their Europa League run.
The last time these two sides met, Tottenham Hotspur thrashed Aston Villa 4-1 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, producing a stunning second-half display that blew Unai Emery’s men away.
Aston Villa are firmly in the race for a UEFA Champions League place, currently sitting sixth and trailing fourth-placed Manchester City by just three points as the season nears its conclusion.
This upcoming meeting will be Spurs’ final league outing before they head to Bilbao to take on Manchester United in the Europa League final – a historic opportunity for the north London club.
When and where is the game?
The Premier League fixture between Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur will take place at Villa Park on Friday, 16 May 2025, with kick-off scheduled for 7:30 PM (UK time).

Spurs and Aston Villa team news ahead of Villa Park clash
Tottenham Hotspur are heading into this encounter with several notable injury concerns. Radu Dragusin is sidelined with an ACL injury and will miss the remainder of the season, while James Maddison is also unavailable following the knee injury he sustained in the first leg against Bodo/Glimt.
Lucas Bergvall is another absentee, ruled out for the rest of the campaign due to ankle ligament damage, adding to Ange Postecoglou’s selection headache.
Aston Villa, on the other hand, have their issues, with Jacob Ramsey suspended for this one. Marcus Rashford is also set to miss out with a hamstring problem, while Youri Tielemans remains unavailable due to a muscular injury.
Spurs Web Prediction
Tottenham’s performances in the Premier League have been appalling, to say the least. Aston Villa, driven by the lure of Champions League football, will be determined to get the better of Spurs under the Friday night lights.
Ange Postecoglou may choose to field his strongest available side, aiming to rebuild momentum before their European final on 21 May.
Tottenham could nick a result if they replicate the kind of football they have played in the Europa League this season. However, Villa’s energy and directness might be too much to handle, and the Lilywhites could very well slump to their 21st league defeat of the campaign.
Score prediction: Aston Villa 3-1 Tottenham Hotspur
