Should be a good win for us today. We are on decent form, at home, and improving all the time. Villa are playing bad and morale is low.
Yes, we might lose or draw. But quite why anyone would honestly predict anything but a win right now is baffling.
It just has an air of inevitability about it. We've seen Spurs do it so many times before after a big win.
February 2012: Spurs 5-0 Saudi Sportswashing Machine, a week later - we draw with Stevenage Borough.
May 2011: Liverpool 0-2 Spurs, followed by a brick performance at home to Birmingham in which they had equalised and would have held on for a point if they hadn't needed another goal to stay up and sent everyone forward in the last minute for us to score on the counter attack
February 2011: AC Milan 0-1 Spurs. A week later, we lost to a Blackpool side who had previously taken one point from their last six games.
November 2010: Spurs 3-1 Inter Milan, next game - we lose and concede 4 away to Bolton
Later that month: Arsenal 2-3 Spurs, Spurs 3-0 Werder Bremen, Spurs 2-1 Liverpool...3 strong wins on the bounce. Then we went to Birmingham who got relegated that season, played brick, and dropped points
May 2010: Spurs 2-1 Arsenal, Spurs 2-1 Chelsea, Emirates Marketing Project 0-1 Spurs...then we let a 2 goal lead slip to already relegated Burnley and lose 4-2.
March 2009: We beat Villa at Villa Park when they were in the top 4, followed it up by being the only team to beat Chelsea under Hiddink....and then lost to a dogbrick Blackburn side
November 2008: Having just scored 4 at the Emirates to earn a late point, then beating Liverpool who were top of the league and hadn't lost in any competition, to then beating Emirates Marketing Project away...then we lost to Fulham.
February 2008: A fantastic cup final win over Chelsea was followed by...a 4-1 loss to Birmingham, who got relegated that season
November 2006: A first league win over Chelsea in 16 years was followed by...a 3-1 loss to Reading.
You get the picture. We have a habit of winning a big game then fudging up the easier game that follows. I'm off to put some money on Villa and a draw.
