Aston Villa vs Tottenham fixture could be rearranged for second time under one condition

Tottenham have now confirmed that their Premier League fixture with Aston Villa during the run-in could be rescheduled again.

Tottenham Hotspur are in desperate need of points in the Premier League as they continue to battle relegation this season.

Of all the sides embroiled in the relegation scrap this campaign, Spurs have the worst form across the last ten games, having managed just three draws in that time.

Surprisingly, they still find themselves above those dreaded dotted lines, but their lead is slender, with just one point separating the Lilywhites from the bottom three.

Tottenham confirm Aston Villa fixture reschedule for Premier League run-in

There are still seven games and 21 points to play for this season, making every match absolutely vital for Spurs.

However, one of their fixtures has now been rescheduled ahead of the run-in, which kicks off after the March international break.

Tottenham have confirmed that the game against Aston Villa has been rescheduled for May 2 at 12:30, but it could be moved to Sunday, May 3, if Villa reach the Europa League semi-finals.

The match is expected to kick off at 12:30pm on Saturday or 7pm on Sunday and will be shown live on TNT Sports and HBO Max.

Spurs may benefit from Aston Villa fixture switch amid home struggles

The Villa encounter is away from home for Spurs, and that might be exactly what they need given their struggles at home all season.

At the moment, no side has a worse home record than Tottenham – not even the bottom three teams.

Spurs might also fancy their chances in that game, as they could be well rested, with the club now involved in just one competition following exits from the FA Cup and Champions League.

Meanwhile, Villa, on the other hand, could be fatigued after their Europa League commitments.
