Aston Villa vs. Tottenham Prediction, Picks for Premier League - Sunday, May 3

Before Sunday’s contest begins, Aston Villa is positioned well at the No. 5 spot in the Premier League table with 58 points. Villa is tied with fourth-place Liverpool in points, and sixth-place Brentford is at 51 points — putting Aston Villa in a premier spot to earn Champions League qualification next season.

In terms of recent form, Aston Villa has gone 2-1-4 over their last seven matches in the Premier League.

With four games remaining on their schedule, “Yes” on Villa finishing in the top four in the EPL carries a 2.32x payout, per PrizePicks Team Picks.

On the other hand, Tottenham can feel the pressure of avoiding relegation, as they are currently sitting at 18th in the Premier League standings with 34 points. Currently, Tottenham is two points back of No. 17 West Ham, so results are desperately needed in the club’s final four games.

A win over Wolves in their most recent outing and a loss by West Ham against Brentford on Saturday provide some potential help for Tottenham down the stretch. However, injuries continue to mount for Spurs, making things even more difficult for them to stave off relegation.

According to PrizePicks Team Picks, “Yes” on Tottenham getting relegated possesses a 2x payout.
