Aston Villa vs. Chelsea: Confirmed Lineup

A tough battle faces West-London side Chelsea on their trip to Birmingham City to face Aston Villa roughly days after their 5-0 humiliation to North London rivals Arsenal.

With nothing to lose at this point of the season bar their pride, the Blues will be hoping to change the narratives in the remaining games that faces them this season.

But can they regain hopes of a European spot finish again this season? It is a doubt at the moment and ironic when we consider that Aston Villa themselves have a Champions League spot to fight for in contrast to Chelsea.

Pride and glory is at stake for the famous Blues who pride themselves as the Pride of London, but for Villa, Europe is all to fight for at the minute and possibly a top 3 finish if Liverpool continue to falter as the season nears its end.

As kick-off nears, Chelsea forward man, Nicolas Jackson will be hoping to have the right boots on to slot a win for his team against Unai Emery’s Aston Villa, if not for glory, for redemption.

Here goes the Confirmed Lineup for both sides;
