Chelsea v Aston Villa prediction and team news: Who will win Premier League game?
Our predictions for Chelsea v Aston Villa in the Premier League, including who we think will win and predicted line-ups.
Chelsea welcome Aston Villa to Stamford Bridge for Saturday's late Premier League kick-off with both sides looking to kick on and challenge for a top six place.
The Blues are 10th in the league and one place above Villa on goal difference after 27 games.
Chelsea, who booked their place in the Champions League quarter-finals before the international break, were tipped to finish in the top four this season, but Graham Potter's men are a long way off and a top six finish is likely their main goal.
They splashed the cash in the January transfer window and they won three in a row prior to their 2-2 draw at home against Everton last time out.
Aston Villa have won three of their last four in the Premier League and they come into this on the back of their 3-0 win against Bournemouth before the international break. Unai Emery will be hoping to keep that form up as they look to finish in the top eight or even higher.
