At 01:30 Beijing time on December 27, the 19th round of the Premier League, Aston Villa sat at home to face Chelsea.
Villa vs Chelsea, the highlights of the game are as follows:
First: two-team situation! After 18 rounds of the Premier League, Villa ranked tenth with 22 points from 7 wins, 1 draw and 9 losses, and Chelsea ranked third with 38 points from 11 wins, 5 draws and 2 losses. In the last round of the Premier League, Villa's game was postponed due to the epidemic, and Chelsea drew 0-0 with Wolves.
Second: Gerald can't lead the team to the battle! Gerrard will not be able to direct Villa's game live because he tested positive for COVID-19. Since Gerrard took charge of Villa, the team has achieved a record of 4 wins and 2 losses in the last 6 premier league rounds, of which 2 losses are only 1 goal difference to Manchester City and Liverpool. Gerrard has brought a qualitative leap to Villa, the manager is absent, can Villa's home game against Chelsea continue the good form of the previous 6 rounds?
Third: Chelsea suffered a weak edge! Chelsea have won only 1 win in the last 4 premier league rounds, the team ranking has also fallen from the top of the table to the third, the last 2 rounds of the Premier League have suffered two consecutive draws, the Blues have scored only 1 goal in 2 games, and Tuchel has suffered the biggest low since coaching Chelsea. The Biggest Problem for the Blues now is that they can't turn back, the team's attack will stop, and the forward's offensive firepower is seriously insufficient. In this round of the Premier League, Chelsea away to the state of The Villa, can Lukaku score? It is one of the highlights of the game.
The two sides have met in the last 6 times, villa 1 win, 2 draws and 3 losses, in the downwind.
