Aston Villa

The "Villans" are enjoying an excellent season and rightfully contend for a Champions League spot. It's worth noting that Aston Villa is also considered one of the favorites in the Conference League. The team came close to exiting European competitions but managed to secure a crucial goal in the 87th minute. As a result, fate favored them in the penalty shootout against a French opponent, securing their passage to the semifinals.

Last weekend, Aston Villa hosted a home match, defeating Bournemouth 3-1. Despite the visitors scoring first, the "Villans" managed to equalize before halftime and eventually clinched victory. In the last five matches, Aston Villa has recorded three wins, one draw, and one loss. Additionally, Aston Villa has been formidable at home this season, securing 12 victories in 17 matches with just three defeats.

Chelsea

The "Blues" put on an impressive performance against Manchester City in the semifinals of the FA Cup. Manchester City scored the only goal through Bernardo Silva in the 84th minute, securing their place in the final. However, the cup tie seemed to drain both the physical and emotional resources of the " Pensioners," as they appeared helpless against Arsenal.

Overall, Chelsea has struggled to find consistency this season, oscillating between extremes. They recently demolished Everton 6-0 at home but suffered a 0-5 defeat to Arsenal in a derby shortly thereafter. Currently, Chelsea occupies ninth place in the league table with 47 points, trailing sixth-placed Manchester United by six points.

Interesting Match Facts and Head-to-Head History

• Chelsea eliminated Aston Villa from the FA Cup this season with a 3-1 away victory after a goalless draw at Stamford Bridge.
• In the first round, Aston Villa defeated Chelsea 1-0 in London, marking their second consecutive victory over the "Aristocrats" at the time.
• In the last cup match between the two teams, both sides scored, whereas in the five preceding encounters, the "Both Teams to Score" bet failed.
