Aston Villa - Tottenham 2:0

Aston Villa took a major step toward UEFA Champions League qualification with a crucial 2–0 victory over a struggling Tottenham Hotspur in their Premier League Matchday 37 encounter at Villa Park.

The win sees Unai Emery’s side climb into the coveted top four, temporarily displacing Chelsea, and potentially Manchester City, depending on the result of the later fixture between Chelsea and Manchester United.

Ezri Konsa and Boubacar Kamara found the net for the hosts, sealing three vital points in front of a raucous home crowd in Birmingham. The result continues Villa’s remarkable resurgence under Emery, as they now sit firmly in the UEFA Champions League conversation with one round remaining.

Tottenham's Late-Season Collapse Continues

For Ange Postecoglou and Spurs, the nightmare run in the Premier League persists. The North London side have now won just once in their last 11 league matches, with only two draws in that span. Despite the slump, Tottenham remain just above the relegation zone, though they are expected to secure top-flight safety due to a sufficient points cushion.
