Aston Villa vs Chelsea prediction

Aston Villa vs Chelsea: Premier League preview
Aston Villa welcome Chelsea to Villa Park on Sunday afternoon looking to make it three Premier League wins in a row.
Unai Emery’s side have impressed since the Spaniard took charge in October, winning four of their last five league games to move up to 11th in the table.
Chelsea, meanwhile, have struggled for consistency this season and come into this game on the back of a disappointing 1-0 defeat at home to Manchester City.
The Blues are now eighth in the table, 10 points behind leaders Arsenal, and will be looking to close the gap with a win at Villa Park.
Team news
Aston Villa will be without defender Diego Carlos, who is still recovering from an Achilles injury.
Chelsea have a number of injury concerns, with Reece James (knee), Ben Chilwell (hamstring), Wesley Fofana (knee), Mateo Kovacic (calf) and Armando Broja (knee) all ruled out.
Predicted line-ups
Aston Villa: Martinez; Cash, Konsa, Mings, Moreno; McGinn, Kamara, Luiz; Buendia, Watkins, Bailey
Chelsea: Kepa; Azpilicueta, Thiago Silva, Koulibaly, Cucurella; Jorginho, Gallagher; Ziyech, Mount, Sterling; Havertz
Odds
Aston Villa: 13/5
Draw: 12/5
Chelsea: 11/10
Our prediction
This is a tough game to call, but we think Chelsea will just edge it. The Blues have more quality in their squad and should be able to overcome the absence of several key players.
Prediction: Chelsea to win 2-1
