I think Tottenham are still on track, despite suffering two consecutive defeats, first to Chelsea and second to Wolves. I am quite surprised by Wolves performance when they meet big teams, luck is always on their side. If you look closely, Ange squad is going through a hurricane of injuries at the moment, I think this will affect the course of the game. Aston Villa are indeed tough this season, it has been proven that they are able to secure 25 points and are one level below Spurs at the moment. However, I am inclined that Ange and her squad will get the perfect points in this match, especially playing in front of their own supporters. Son and colleagues will pay for their home defeat to the Blues yesterday, and want their place back at the top of the standings.

The situation currently experienced by Tottenham is not different from the situation experienced by Manchester City several weeks ago. Manchester City suffered 3 consecutive defeats in two different competitions, losing to Wolves and Arsenal in the Premier League and losing to Newcastle in the League Cup. Of course Tottenham are still on the right track so far after finishing the first 12 matches with 8 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. That's not bad at all even though they are currently 2 points lower than Manchester City.

Moreover, Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool are not completely safe in first, second and third positions because Tottenham are not far from them. The pressure of each team increases because the points gap for the top 4 teams is not much, it is only about 1 and 2 points. Anyone can slip up, including Manchester City, but if Tottenham fail to recover in the next match then of course they will be even further behind.
