Aston Villa Preview – Can Aston Villa turn things around?
Despite losing four of their last five matches in the Premier League before the top flight season was put on hold, there’s still everything to play for as Aston Villa are only a point adrift of West Ham and Watford who occupy fifth and fourth from bottom positions (and safety) in the Premier League, ahead of this weekend’s fixtures.
Losses to Bournemouth, Tottenham, Southampton and Leicester City have meant that Villa still sit in the bottom three of the Premier League but results at home have at least been encouraging and have shown that Villa are still up for the fight in their bid to avoid relegation back down to the Championship.
Wins against Norwich City and Watford have been tempered by defeats to Manchester City and Tottenham, but goals have also featured prominently during this campaign as nine of Villa’s 14 home matches have resulted in over 2.5 goals.
Chelsea Preview – Can Chelsea hold onto top four spot?
Chelsea strengthened their claims for a top four finish just before the enforced halt to their Premier League campaign by collecting wins against Tottenham 2-1 and Everton 4-0, both of which were registered on home turf at Stamford Bridge, along with picking up a point in a 2-2 draw on the road at Bournemouth.
Prior to these promising results, Chelsea had suffered a 2-0 defeat at home to Manchester United, but with an overall away record of 7-3-4 29/24, an away day may just suit Chelsea here as they make their way up to the west midlands.
Recent results though on the road have also eluded Chelsea as they’ve drawn at Brighton, Leicester City and Bournemouth along with defeat at Newcastle United, but goals have also been prominent where The Blues are concerned as 11 of Chelsea’s 14 away matches have also resulted in over 2.5 goals.
