The full team line-ups for Aston Villa v Tottenham Hotspur in their Premier League match at Villa Park on Saturday evening.

Stewart Downing starts the match on the bench and is hoping to make his home debut for Aston Villa after his summer move from Middlesbrough, with the England midfielder having recovered from a broken foot to come on as a substitute against Burnley last weekend.

Tottenham Hotspur, still on a high from their 9-1 mauling of Wigan Athletic last weekend, start with the same strike-force of Jermain Defoe and Peter Crouch in attack.
