US EditionVilla unhappy with fixture change to help Tottenham
- Tottenham Hotspur's league game against Aston Villa has been rescheduled from May 18 to May 16 in London to allow the team additional time to prepare for a possible Europa League final appearance.
- The change followed Spurs' request last month after they gained a 3-1 lead over Bodo/Glimt in the Europa League semi-final first leg and could face Manchester United in the final.
- Aston Villa officials, including director Damian Vidagany and football operations president Monchi, expressed unhappiness and noted the scheduling created prejudice against Villa fans.
- Vidagany described the Friday fixture as the least damaging option after efforts to move the match to Saturday were blocked by the FA Cup final clash on May 17.
- The fixture change reduces Villa's preparation time by two days and highlights tensions in accommodating English clubs facing demanding European schedules.
