Chelsea Form

Chelsea have climbed into the Premier League title race after going unbeaten in 10 of their last 11. The Blues have won six games during this spell and Nicolas Jackson has scored seven goals.

Enzo Maresca’s side held Arsenal and Man United to 1-1 draws before the international break. They have won their two matches since returning, starting with a 2-1 victory at Leicester, where Jackson opened the scoring.

The Blues won in the Conference League on Thursday, beating Heidenheim 2-0 away. Christopher Nkunku and Mykhailo Mudryk scored as Chelsea dominated with 17 shots and 67% possession.

Chelsea Injuries

Striker Pedro Neto and defender Malo Gusto are doubtful due to injury.

Full-back Reece James has a long-term injury and is unavailable until 2025.

Aston Villa are winless in seven games in all competitions and have lost four. The Villans have fallen to eighth in the Premier League after taking just two points from four games.

Villa lost against Crystal Palace 2-1, Tottenham 4-1, Club Brugge 1-0 and Liverpool 2-0 before the November internationals. Unai Emery’s side ended their losing streak with a 2-2 comeback draw at home against Palace on Saturday.

The Villans’ winless run continued after a goalless Champions League stalemate with Juventus. Villa had three shots on target and Morgan Rogers 94th minute goal was ruled out.

Aston Villa Injuries

Amadou Onana could be in contention to return from his recent injury.

Midfielder Jacob Ramsey won’t be available for selection. He is sidelined with a hamstring issue.

Verdict

Chelsea v Aston Villa

Chelsea are in solid form and can edge struggling Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge. Jackson has found scoring rhythm in the Premier League and can net again on Sunday.
