Stamford Bridge is set to remain witness to an English Premier League top four clash when third-placed Aston Villa visit the home of the fourth-placed Chelsea on Saturday.
Although Chelsea are currently on fourth position on the league charts, their difference in points with that of Aston Villa is a staggering seven; the Blues will be keen on reducing this gap on Saturday, and at the same time, look to put a stop to Villa’s run of ten straight victories in all competitions.
Enzo Maresca’s men have, quite evidently, suffered a slump in form; the Blues have won just a solitary game out of their last four league fixtures. If the Blues lose on Saturday, their position in the Top 4 can be usurped by either Liverpool or Sunderland if they manage to achieve positive results in their respective games. The home record of the team will provide some comfort; the Blues have lost just two home fixtures in the league this season.
Aston Villa are, currently, serious contenders for the Premier League title, something the Villa Park faithful would not have thought, seeing their team’s start of season form. Unai Emery is currently at the helm of a side which has not tasted draw or defeat for ten straight games in all competitions, and will be keen on extending this record on Saturday.
Aston Villa have previously beaten Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in two out of their last three visits to London, and the West Midlands side will also be hopeful of a strong showing on Saturday, given that they have now registered a staggering 27 points in their last ten league games.
As things stand, a win for Aston Villa can be predicted as the possible outcome of Saturday’s game at Stamford Bridge.
