Harry Kane out to equal Romelu Lukaku record against Aston Villa

Harry Kane will be out to equal a Premier League goalscoring record set by Romelu Lukaku when Tottenham Hotspur face Aston Villa in Saturday's Premier League battle at Villa Park.

The England captain has rediscovered his best form after a slow start to the campaign and now has 12 goals and six assists to his name from 29 top-flight matches this season.

Kane is also no stranger to strikes against Aston Villa, and the 28-year-old has scored in each of his three Premier League meetings with the Lions at Villa Park - netting four at the ground in total.

Should Kane find the back of the net in Saturday's game, he will become just the second player in Premier League history to net in four successive games against Villa on their own turf.

Former Manchester United and current Chelsea striker Lukaku is the only player to have previously done so, with the Belgian making it four games at Villa with a goal on Boxing Day 2021.

Tottenham head into the weekend having usurped Arsenal into fourth place in the Premier League table, but they are only above the Gunners on goal difference having played a game more.
