Aston Villa kick off their 2025/26 FA Cup campaign with an all-Premier League third round tie in north London. Here’s how to watch Tottenham Hotspur v Aston Villa live.
Villa take their first step in the FA Cup on the back of a goalless league draw against bogey team Crystal Palace on Wednesday and a number of changes will be expected early on Saturday evening.
Unai Emery‘s team beat Spurs 2-1 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in October, coming from behind to bank three points thanks to goals from Morgan Rogers and Emi Buendía.
What time does Spurs v Villa kick off?
The FA Cup third round is spread across four days this weekend, with four matches on Friday, eight on Sunday, one on Monday and the remaining 19 to be played on Saturday afternoon and evening.
The Saturday fixtures begin with four 12.15pm kick-offs. Charlton Athletic play Chelsea at 8.00pm to end the day, with the others played at either 3.00pm or 5.45pm.
Villa’s game at Spurs is one of four matches that start at 5.45pm on Saturday.
