Tottenham must shake off a frustrating Premier League defeat quickly ahead of a Champions League trip to Monaco.
Spurs took an early lead over Aston Villa only to fall to a 2-1 defeat - their first in eight games across all competitions - and raise more questions about the club’s ability to build in attack.

Such fralities were on show the last time Spurs were in Champions League action, as they escaped Bodo/Glimt with an entirely undeserved 2-2 draw. That came after an unconvincing 1-0 win over Villarreal in their first League Phase game.
Monaco are also struggling and welcome Spurs amid a four-game winless streak, though that run includes a 2-2 draw with Manchester City.
Date, kick-off time and venue
Monaco vs Tottenham is scheduled for an 8pm BST kick-off on Wednesday, October 22, 2025.

Monaco vs Tottenham team news
Cristian Romero and Destiny Udogie, who withdrew ahead of the loss to Aston Villa, were both absent from training ahead of the trip and did not join their team-mates on the plane leaving London. Kevin Danso and Djed Spence are expected to deputise again.
Mathys Tel is ineligible, so Richarlison will start as loanee Randal Kolo Muani continues to build up his fitness, with Dominic Solanke still sidelined. Lucas Bergvall and Pape Sarr will be pushing to start, with Xavi Simons' place in doubt.
Monaco are juggling many injuries of their own, most notably former Spurs star Eric Dier who misses the game with a hamstring problem. The likes of Vanderson, Denis Zakaria and Christian Mawissa will also miss out. Paul Pogba is still not fit enough to play.
Monaco vs Tottenham prediction
This one should serve up some goals. Neither team can boast particularly impressive defences - especially with Romero out - but both have plenty to offer in attack.
End-to-end action will be on the menu, with Spurs’ notable away form coming out on top in a tight affair.
