Aston Villa vs Chelsea: Records, Stats, Goals, Head to Head & everything to know

Chelsea will be keen to begin their mid-season involvement on a positive note when they face fellow English club Aston Villa. The Blues have been in a poor run of form before the World Cup came to a halt, hence Graham Potter will be eager to regroup his side during this unusual winter break as they prepare for a hectic second half of the season. Meanwhile, Villa have been playing good football and securing morale-boosting results since Unai Emery’s appointment. They have already played two friendlies hence their players will have better match fitness compared to their opponents.

Despite Graham Potter not being in the job for long, he will already be feeling the pressure as Chelsea are on the back of three successive Premier League defeats. They have 21 points from 14 games to sit eight in the league table. Meanwhile, Emery could not have hoped for a better start to life at Villa than beating Manchester United and Brighton in their first two league games. They are 12th in the standings, with 18 points from 15 league matches.
