Harry Redknapp believes that Aston Villa are a stronger side this season and that the match will be between two evenly matched teams in good form.
The Spurs Official Website report Redknapp as saying: "They definitely look stronger this year. They're a good counter-attacking side with the pace they've got in Agbonlahor, Milner, Young and Carew up front.

"I think Martin made some good signings in the summer, especially the three defenders he brought in - Dunne, Collins and Warnock."
Redknapp also took time to hail Martin O'Neill's managerial record.
"Martin's a good guy and a top manager. His record was fantastic at Leicester, where he did a great job, and then on to Celtic and then Villa where he's carried on that work again.
"There will be a great atmosphere at Villa Park but I've gone there in recent seasons and had some good victories with Portsmouth and last season with Spurs. Let's hope we can do the same.
"This will be an evenly matched game between two teams trying to get into Europe this season and two teams that are both on form."
