Spurs will head into the match against Villa on the back of a 3-0 defeat to Dinamo Zagreb away from home in the second round of their Europa League Round of 16 to go out 3-2 on aggregate.
Lawrenson wrote on BBC Sport: “I am at this game for BBC Radio 5 live, and I am not really sure what to expect from Aston Villa. They have been up and down for a few weeks now, and have only won one of their past six games.
“Mind you, it’s not easy to predict what Tottenham will do either. Their performance - or lack of one - against Arsenal was very strange after their good form leading up to it. They were very disappointing.
“Son Heung-min’s injury is a blow for Spurs too, but whether he is fit or not, I don’t see their approach changing too much here. Jose Mourinho will sit in again and try to pinch something - and it might work.”
