Aston Villa Vs. Chelsea: Form & Head-To-Head Record

Recent Form

The Villans have lost a bit of momentum in recent outings. In their last four matches, they have won once, drawn twice, and lost once. Having dropped five points in their last three Premier League outings, Unai Emery’s side have allowed Arsenal to gain an upper hand on them in the standings. The Gunners currently sit in third place, three points clear of fourth-place Villa.

The hosts, however, are coming into Wednesday’s match on the back of a resounding 5-o victory over Sheffield United — something that cannot be said about their opponents.

Mauricio Pochettino’s Blues were on a three-game winning run in the Premier League before they fell to a 4-1 defeat to Liverpool on January 31. The Pensioners suffered another crushing defeat four days later, this time falling to a 4-2 loss against Wolverhampton Wanderers. Pochettino needs to get his men back in shape to avoid another embarrassment this week.
