Chelsea vs Aston Villa Prediction & Betting tips
On Wednesday evening, the meeting between Chelsea and Aston Villa is scheduled on Stamford Bridge. The club from London lost Saturday in West Ham United’s own house and four days later went on a hunt for recovery if PhD student Aston Villa was the opponent.
Chelsea:
The Chelsea by Frank Lampard receives a lot of compliments this season from all over the world and that is no more than justified. Chelsea also plays attractive football under Lampard and the former English international also does well at The Blues. The only difference is that Chelsea is less successful in the last matches. A week and a half ago, The Blues lost 2-1 to Manchester City and Chelsea lost points in the Champions League last week to Valencia: 2-2.
Last weekend, Chelsea suffered another defeat in the Premier League; West Ham United was 0-1 too strong for the Lampard team on Saturday afternoon. At Stamford Bridge, Chelsea trailed shortly after the break and The Blues was unable to rectify the deficit in the remainder of the game. The defeat against West Ham United did not have many consequences for Chelsea, as Lampard and his men are still firmly in fourth place in the Premier League. Attacker Tammy Abraham is a doubt case for Wednesday night and will do everything he can to be fit on time so that he can play against his old club. Last season Abraham was rented by Chelsea to Aston Villa and with The Villans he was promoted to the Premier League.
Aston Villa:
For Aston Villa these are of course not the competitions in which the points should normally be taken. Nevertheless, The Villans showed last Sunday that it is not impossible to score points when visiting an English top club. On Sunday-evening, Dean Smith’s team visited Manchester United and Aston Villa tied 2-2 at Old Trafford. Jack Grealish beautifully set the opening goal in Manchester. Next, goalkeeper Tom Heaton had to take two goals from Manchester United, but defender Tyrone Mings set the score at 2-2 after 66 minutes.
A bonus point of course for Aston Villa, which is fifteenth in the Premier League. It was the first time since November 2015 that Aston Villa did not lose in the league of a Big Six club. On Wednesday evening, the PhD student with Chelsea-out will immediately have another difficult game on the program and the question is whether Aston Villa can once again stunt a top team from the Premier League. Smith’s team played with a lot of guts on Old Trafford and if Villa dares to do so on Stamford Bridge, The Villans can still make it difficult for Chelsea in London.
