Huge night at Villa Park in the race for UCL qualification. Aston Villa are looking for three league wins in a row against Chelsea for the first time since a run of four between 1978 and 1984, while the Blues have lost eight of their last 10 midweek away league games... #AVFC

They were on course to be the Premier League's worst ever side. Now, they have beaten Aston Villa and Liverpool in back-to-back matches — with an FA Cup rematch against Arne Slot's side to follow on Friday.

Ollie Watkins averaged a goal every 160 mins in 23/24. Then it became every 210 mins. Now it's every 317 mins. Often a quick fix for an attack is to replace the striker. But would it solve a team who've scored two of their last 76 shots at home? #AVFC https://www.nytimes.com/a

Liam Rosenior on Villa: "They're very clinical in the xG that they create and the values of the goals they score. They're a good team. It'll be tough - they're going to have a reaction from their last result. We have to make sure we're prepared for a very difficult game." #AVFC

Wednesday could be a key night in Aston Villa's season - a chance to move nine points clear of Chelsea. A big response and performance needed. #AVFC
