Tottenham had their four-game Premier League unbeaten run ended by Aston Villa on Sunday.<\/p>\n
The visitors continued their recent resurgence with a 2-1 win at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium<\/a>, which condemned the Lilywhites to just their second defeat of the season in the league. <\/p>\n It was a frustrating afternoon for Thomas Frank and Tottenham<\/a>, who failed to make the most of some promising situations in the first half and slowly saw the game slip away from them. <\/p>\n The new boss has largely overseen a positive change since his arrival in the summer, but he is still yet to fix this glaring issue from Ange Postecoglou\u2019s<\/a> reign. <\/p>\n The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is a remarkable facility<\/a> that has brought Spurs an eye-catching change in terms of their fortunes off the pitch. <\/p>\n However, it has been causing them issues in recent months on the footballing side of things, especially in the Premier League<\/a>. <\/p>\n Sunday\u2019s defeat took their home record to one win, one draw and two losses in the league so far this season, and Villa\u2019s comeback victory has actually condemned their hosts to an unwanted high. <\/p>\n No Premier League side has dropped more points from winning positions at home than Tottenham\u2019s 19 since the start of the 2024-25 season, according to OptaJoe via their X account.<\/p>\n 19 \u2013 Since the start of last season, Tottenham Hotspur have dropped more points from winning positions at home in the Premier League (19) than any other side.
