Aston Villa v Tottenham

Emile Heskey / Chantelle Tagoe (Aston Villa)

Heskey's fiancée Tagoe is a WAG on the rise and one we're tipping to become a big-name on the circuit. Her appearance on a Come Dine with Me WAG special captured her cooking a potato for the first time, while she came across pretty well on BBC Three's more sobering WAGs, Kids and World Cup Dreams. When the couple first got together she thought her hubby was a builder - insert your own joke here - as he didn't want her to know he was a footballer. Tagoe concedes a weakness for Manchester glamour spot Bijou but claims she is just as comfortable doing the school run for the couple's two kids. Heskey might not score too often but we reckon he might just have bagged himself a WAG that could fire them to European qualification.

Rafael van der Vaart / Sylvie van der Vaart (Tottenham Hotspur)

With Rafael van der Vaart the new darling of the White Hart Lane faithful it seems remiss of us not to celebrate the fact by introducing Mrs Van der Vaart to the masses. The uber-WAG par excellence has travelled with her hubby to the Big Smoke and is the perfect replacement for dear old Abbey Clancy, who we're reluctantly granting a sabbatical on the grounds she's expecting her first child. Over the summer, in the WAGs and Stags World Cup in South Africa, Sylvie van der Vaart and her beau stormed their way to the final only to have to settle for a silver medal as Pablo Mouche and Luli Fernandez did what Diego couldn't manage in delivering gold to Argentina. With Rafael proving to be more than affable in his post-match interviews, he does a lot as he's invariably voted man of the match, and Sylvie as beautiful as they come, expect Spurs to build on the sterling work done previously by a Crouch/Clancy partnership. The van der Vaarts have the type of WAG/Stag credentials mere mortals can only dream of, with their wedding beamed out to an adoring Dutch public, live on SBS. How romantic. All they needed was Martin Tyler to exclaim 'and it's live' and the day would have been the fairytale they'd always dreamed of.
