Aston Villa Report

Jacob Tanswell

Suzuki saves again after Archie Gray gets behind Ruggeri and then from Savio. Top goalkeeping. Three times now Savio has played a slide pass for an underlap. #AVFC getting overloaded down their left.

Emery wants McGinn and Buendia tucked in, so width coming from both full-backs. Kamara is dropping between the CBs, so #AVFC can keep building in a back three. Interestingly, Manzambi dropping deeper and alongside Gomes - far deeper than Rogers would pick the ball up.

Double save from Suzuki after a really poor, lax giveaway between him and Wan-Bissaka. #AVFC will have chances to play through the lines but have to better defending wide areas.

Important for #AVFC to weather the opening minutes from Spurs, who will obviously want to start well, as they did against Everton. Spurs a threat with Savio's pace against Ruggeri, with Porro supporting behind, so Gomes will need to keep coming across to cover.

John McGinn won the toss and decided to swap ends. Shooting towards #AVFC away end. Manzambi starts as the central 10 with Buendia off the left. Big role for him out of possession too, with De Zerbi, like Emery, mainly attacking centrally.
