Aston Villa host Chelsea at Villa Park, Birmingham on Saturday, Feb 27 at 4:00 PM in the Premier League.
Aston Villa come into this fixture struggling badly (1W 3L in last 5). Chelsea, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 1D 2L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Aston Villa won their last outing, while Chelsea suffered defeat — home advantage backed by momentum.
In 10 previous meetings, Aston Villa lead 5–3 with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in Chelsea won 4–1. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.6 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Aston Villa a slight edge, but Chelsea are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
