Chelsea lost this exact fixture 2-0 last season but haven't lost consecutive home league meetings with Aston Villa since a run of three between 1930 and 1933.
Following their 2-0 win against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in April, Aston Villa are looking to win back-to-back league games against the Blues for the first time since October 1993.
So far in 2023, Chelsea have had the joint-fewest wins (5) and have the lowest goals-per-game average (0.86) of any Premier League team to have played across both campaigns.
Chelsea have won just two of their last 13 Premier League home games (D6 L5), with those coming last season against relegated Leeds, and this season against promoted Luton. Their six home league defeats so far in 2023 is their most at Stamford Bridge in a calendar year since 1993 (7).
Only Brighton's (22) Premier League games have seen more goals scored so far this season than Aston Villa's (21 – F11 A10). The Villans have scored 3+ goals in all three of their wins, while their two defeats have both been by a 3+ goal margin.
After having won six of their first eight away Premier League games under Unai Emery (D1 L1), Aston Villa have now won just one of their last seven on the road (D2 L4). However, the Villans are so far unbeaten in London under Emery in the league (W2 D2).
Last time out against Bournemouth, Chelsea played out the first 0-0 draw in the Premier League this season. Meanwhile, Aston Villa manager Unai Emery has taken charge of more Premier League games without ever seeing a goalless draw than any other manager (81).
Despite having the fifth-highest expected goals total in the Premier League this season (10.3), Chelsea have scored just five goals, with only Everton (-5.6) underperforming their xG more than the Blues this term (-5.3).
No Premier League player has found a single teammate with a through ball more often than Enzo Fernández has for Nicolas Jackson at Chelsea this season (3). Fernández has also created more chances than any other Chelsea player this term (11).
Last time out against Crystal Palace, Pau Torres made more passes (124) and more successful passes (117) than any Aston Villa player on record in a Premier League match (since 2003-04). Torres has also made more progressive carries than any other player in the division this season (89).
