Head to Head - Spurs v Aston Villa

Tottenham will start a league season at home for the first time since 2010, following eight successive seasons with an away match to start their league campaign.

Aston Villa have won just one of their last 17 competitive meetings with Tottenham Hotspur (W1 D3 L13); this coming in a 1-0 victory at White Hart Lane in April 2015 thanks to a first-half Christian Benteke goal.

This is the sixth time Spurs are playing their opening match of a EPL season against a promoted team. They've won four of the previous five, with their only defeat coming in 2007-08 against Sunderland.

When playing their first match of the EPL season at home, Tottenham have lost just once (W2 D3), with that defeat coming against Manchester United in 1997-98.

Aston Villa have won their last three opening EPL fixtures, with all three of these coming away from home (Arsenal in 2013-14, Stoke in 2014-15 and Bournemouth in 2015-16).

Aston Villa are winless in their last 18 EPL away matches (D3 L15), losing their last seven in a row between February-May 2016.

After winning their first four matches without conceding at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Spurs are winless in their last three at their new home (D1 L2).

Spurs have lost 13 of their 29 matches in all competitions so far in 2019, more than any other current EPL side (W14 D2). They last suffered more defeats in a single calendar year in 2014 (16).

Tottenham's Harry Kane has scored four goals in five EPL appearances against Aston Villa, including two goals in their last such meeting: a 2-0 win for Spurs at Villa Park in March 2016.

Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino has lost two of his three home EPL matches against Aston Villa (one with Southampton, one with Spurs). He's only lost more home matches in the competition against Liverpool and Manchester City (3 each).
