Tottenham Hotspur defeated Aston Villa at Villa Park to aid their battle against relegation, according to the Premier League. The result provides a significant lift for Roberto De Zerbi and his players following a difficult period in the bottom half of the table. De Zerbi took charge of the north London club earlier this season after the departure of Ange Postecoglou.
Spurs currently occupy 16th place in the league standings, per Sky Sports. The victory moves them three points clear of the relegation zone with three matches remaining in the campaign. Villa remains in the top half of the table despite the defeat, as reported by The Guardian.
The club next faces a home fixture against Crystal Palace. De Zerbi stated that the performance showed the character required to maintain Premier League status. Supporters expressed relief at the final whistle as the team secured its first away win in five attempts. The management remains focused on the points required to guarantee safety before the final day.
