Aston Villa have kept a clean sheet in each of their last three meetings with Chelsea in all competitions, more than they had in their previous 26 against them (2). They’ve never gone four in a row without conceding against the Blues.
Chelsea were eliminated in their first four FA Cup ties against Aston Villa but have since progressed from their last three, with two of those coming at Wembley (1-0 in 1999-00 final, 3-0 in 2009-10 semi-final).
Aston Villa have lost each of their last five FA Cup home games. The last team within England’s top four tiers to lose more consecutively on home soil were Rotherham United (7 between 2002 and 2008).
Chelsea have progressed from eight of their last nine FA Cup replays, with this their first since the 2017-18 third round against Norwich. Their only elimination in this run was against Everton in 2010-11 (fourth round).
Chelsea lost 4-0 against Manchester City in their last FA Cup away game (last season’s third round). They’ve not lost consecutive matches on the road in the competition since February 2004 (v Arsenal) and February 2005 (v Newcastle).
