CHELSEA VS ASTON VILLA MATCH ANALYSIS
Chelsea come into this match on the back of a 3-1 defeat away to Arsenal on Boxing Day. Frank Lampard's side were below par and have now lost three of their last four Premier League fixtures. Another poor result here and the pressure will crank up a notch on Frank Lampard as the Blues have fallen out of the top-six for the first time and are in 8th place with 25 points. Their opponents, on the other hand, are in 7th, on goal difference above the hosts, and will be full of confidence ahead of the trip to London after embarrising Crystal Palace 3-0 on Boxing Day, despite playing the whole second half with 10 men. Villa are now unbeaten in their last four (W3, D1) and have kept a clean sheet in those four games.
Frank Lampard will most certainly make changes after a humiliating Boxing Day defeat to their London rivals. Timo Werner has now failed to score in his last nine appearances for Chelsea and was substituted at half-time at the Emirates. Olivier Giroud is expected to start, having netted eight times in as many appearances against Villa in the Premier League. Another shout could go to Havertz who has really struggled since joining Chelsea but could be given the chance here if Hakim Ziyech is not ready yet.
As for their Boxing Day defeat, two first-half goals from Alexandre Lacazette from the penalty-spot and Granit Xhaka from a free-kick put Arteta's side in control. Saka's mishit cross in the second-half put the game out of the visitors reach, but Abraham got one goal back and Jorginho then saw his penalty saved by Bernd Leno. Final five minutes were nervy for the hosts, but it was an otherwise lacklustre performance by Frank Lampard's side, who missed the chance to go second.
Aston Villa, on the other hand, have been one of the best teams in the Premier League this season and impressed with their brand of attacking football. Dean Smith and co are level on points with Chelsea despite playing two games fewer and will look to record another famous victory this season after triumphs against Arsenal and Liverpool. Their impressive progress from relegation strugglers to the top-six is down to the maturity of the players, Dean Smith said after the Palace match.
Their Boxing Day win against the Eagles was an incident-packed game. Burkina Faso winger Bertrand Traore put Villa ahead before Mings' contraversial dismissal aftrer a second first-half booking. Palace looked to take advantage of the sending-off but instead conceded two further goals through Kortney Hause and Dutch winger Anwar El Ghazi. Villa managed just 35 points in their first season back in the top flight but their latest victory leaves them on 25 points after 13 games.

Chelsea have won 10 of their last 11 Premier League games against Aston Villa (L1), including their last six in a row, while Aston Villa haven’t kept a clean sheet in any of their last 19 Premier League away games against Chelsea (W2 D3 L14).
Chelsea's confidence will be rocked by the manner of their defeat to Arsenal, but the Blues have been one of the most improved home teams in the league. They have averaged 2.25 points per home game played in 2020, in contrast to 1.32 in 2019.
The visitors, on the other hand, can leave Stamford Bridge with their heads held high regardless of the outcome, as the Villains have exceeded expectations this season.
