Chelsea
- Douglas Luiz returns from suspension and should replace Moussa Diaby in the Xi that started the 3-1 win over Bournemouth last time out.
- Aston Villa remain without six players due to injury.
- Enzo Fernandez has been ruled out for the rest of the season, so Conor Gallagher is set to partner Moises Caicedo at the base of the midfield.
- Malo Gusto and Reece James are absent, so Mauricio Pochettino may use Axel Disasi at right-back and bring Thiago Silva and Trevoh Chalobah into the side.
- Chelsea will hope Cole Palmer can return to the side having missed the heavy defeat at Arsenal.
