Aston Villa vs Chelsea

Graham Potter and Chelsea are back in action today as the Blues begin their preparations for the second half of the Premier League season in Abu Dhabi.

Unai Emery's Aston Villa takes on Graham Potter's Chelsea as both sides look to build in practice ahead of the Premier League restart.

The Al Nahyan Stadium will play host to today's match between Aston Villa and Chelsea. It was a sticky final lap of form for Graham Potter ahead of the World Cup break, with five Premier League matches without a win. 49' - Hutchinson is played through by Jorginho on the break and has acres of space in front of him. This match could be more important than first meets the eye. He'll be fearing for the rest of the season. Chelsea are pressing with nowhere near the same intensity as they did in the early stages and Unai Emery's side looks very comfortable as things stand. 23' - Very uncomfortable viewing here as Broja heads off on a stretcher. 4' - Hutchinson cuts inside from the right flank and passes into Aubameyang inside the box, who cuts the ball back for the winger inside the area. Moments later Hutchinson gets the better of Digne on the right wing and cuts inside, firing a curled effort on to the post. 11' - Bailey breaks away and Villa look to be in behind again, as the Jamaican threads a ball through to the on-rushing Digne, but Hall recovers with a smart interception. 29' - Olsen shows a lot of the ball to Aubameyang in the six yard box and the Gabonese striker nearly gets a crucial touch to direct the ball goalwards. 83' - Hutchinson explodes away on the break and is pulled back by Douglas Luiz, who is lucky to escape a booking.

My name is Manuel Carmona Hidalgo and I will be your antifrión for this match. Aston Villa have already played two friendlies during this break in which they were held to a draw by Brighton (2-2) and were defeated by Cardiff 3-1. Jorginho is one of Chelsea's leaders and he has to play a leading role in this season due to the absence of Sterling, Mount and Havertz, the first two because they are playing in the World Cup and the German is resting after playing in this tournament.
