Spurs vs. Aston Villa (Sunday, 2.00pm)

Fourth hosts fifth in an intriguing Premier League contest on Sunday afternoon, as a decimated and declining Tottenham Hotspur welcome Aston Villa to North London.
Ange Postecoglou's men suffered back-to-back defeats to Chelsea and Wolverhampton Wanderers before the international break, while the Lions got back on track with a 3-1 beating of Fulham.
We say: Tottenham Hotspur 2-2 Aston Villa
A fascinating battle of the high lines is in store at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, where the onus is on the likes of Johnson and Dejan Kulusevski to provide Postecoglou's side with a creative spark in the absence of Maddison and Perisic.
While Spurs should experience plenty of joy against a Villa side who often fall short on the road, it is difficult to back the hosts to quell their goal-happy visitors given their unenviable defensive concerns, and a high-scoring stalemate could be on the menu on Sunday.

Everton vs. Man Utd (Sunday, 4.30pm)

In their first Premier League game since being slapped with an unprecedented 10-point deduction, Everton host Manchester United at Goodison Park on Sunday afternoon.
The Toffees have been plunged into the drop zone as a consequence of breaching the Premier League's Profit and Sustainability rules, while the Red Devils remained inconsistent prior to the international break.
We say: Everton 1-1 Manchester United
Fuelled by a perceived sense of injustice relating to their severe points penalty, Everton have all the motivation they need to put another dent in Man United's Champions League aspirations, and the Toffees are more than capable of marching to a positive result against their injury-hit visitors.
Even with a fully-fit attacking contingent, Ten Hag's goal-shy crop have lacked inspiration in the final third for weeks - at least in the Premier League - and they may have to accept a point at best at Goodison Park.
