Aston Villa will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 3-1 win in their home outing against Bournemouth. During that encounter they had 57% possession and had 14 attempts on goal with 4 on target, while their opponents hit 6 of their 14 shots on goal.
While they have been strong in attack with 12 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 9 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games; however, they have scored in 16 of their 17 played at Villa Park this season.
They've shown some decent form of late, being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 matches, with 3 of the 5 being victories for good measure.
On an individual basis, Ollie Watkins will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 19 goals in Aston Villa's 34 league games this season.

Mauricio Pochettino will have some work to do building up his players after their 5-0 away thrashing at the hands of Arsenal. They achieved 55% possession in that match and had 7 strikes at goal, with 1 hitting the target, up against Arsenal's tally of 27 efforts at goal, 10 of which were on target.
Whilst Pochettino will be pleased with his team's performance in front of goal, having scored 17 goals in their last 6 games, he will want to tighten up his defence if they are to pick up more points, with 14 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
Unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 matches can be counted as a good run of form, particularly with 3 victories included.
Cole Palmer will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 10 goals in the last 6 league outings for Chelsea.
