Aston Villa vs Chelsea Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League
by Ian John | in Premier League Prediction
Aston Villa face Chelsea for the fourth time this season on Saturday evening. The previous three games saw Villa win 1-0 at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League, then an FA Cup tie at the same venue finished 0-0 in January. Chelsea then stunned Villa with a 3-1 win at Villa Park in the replay. The home side lie fourth in the table - six points ahead of Tottenham - following their 3-1 win over Bournemouth last weekend. Chelsea occupy ninth in the table on 47 points, but they have one or two games in hand on the teams above them. Chelsea’s unbeaten run came to an abrupt end in midweek when they were thrashed 5-0 by title chasing Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.Limited Offer. Currently at DraftKings

Aston Villa - Chelsea: Form Analysis
Both Aston Villa and Chelsea come into this game with solid, but not unbeaten, Premier League form. The home side have won six, drawn two and lost two of their last ten Premier League games. Both defeats have been heavy ones, a 4-1 away loss to Man City and a few weeks before that, a 4-0 home hammering by Tottenham. However, the flip side is that Villa completed a league double over Arsenal, winning 2-0 at the Emirates the week before last week’s 3-1 win at home to Bournemouth. Unai Emery’s team are also still in the Europa Conference League, where they face a two-leg semi-final against Olympiakos. With the Premier League likely to receive four places in the new-look Champions League next season, Villa will also be fighting to hold onto that spot in the table over the last four games of the campaign.
Chelsea’s recent improved form came to a spectacular end in midweek when they followed up a 6-0 win over Everton, with a 5-0 thrashing at the hands of Arsenal. Head coach Mauricio Pochettino accused his team of giving up in that game and will want a reaction here. The visitors could still claim a place in Europe if they can finish the season strongly. Seventh in the table should be enough for a Europa Conference League spot and Chelsea do have games in hand on their rivals for that spot above them in the table. Their aim in those remaining six games must be to rescue something from what has been a desperately poor season overall for the big-spending Londoners.

Aston Villa & Chelsea Squad Analysis
Aston Villa will welcome back Brazilian midfielder Douglas Luiz for the game with Chelsea. The midfielder has served his two-match ban for receiving his 10th yellow card of the season in the 3-3 draw with Brentford. Villa’s long-term injury absentees, that remain unavailable and likely not to feature until next season, are Boubacar Kamara, Emiliano Buendia, Tyrone Mings and Jacob Ramsey. Alex Moreno and Nicolo Zainolo are ruled out for the game with Chelsea, but should make a return in early May from their knocks.
Mauricio Pochettino’s Chelsea still have their own lengthy injury list. Wesley Fofana and Romeo Lavia are both ruled out for the season. Cole Palmer missed the game with Arsenal in midweek through illness but is expected to recover to be available for this game. That might be the only piece of good news for Chelsea fans from the physio room as Malo Gusto, Ben Chilwell, Levi Colwill, Christopher Nkunku, Robert Sanchez, Reece James and Lesley Ugochukwu all remain a week or more away from being fit enough for consideration.

This is something that bet365 has rectified for their bettors courtesy of this offer. If the team that you backed takes a two-goal lead your bet will be paid out as a winner. That is any two-goal lead so 2-0, 3-1, 4-2 etc will all be paid out early as a winner if your team is in that position.

Singles and multiples are both valid for this offer but you cannot bet on enhanced price markets.
