Ollie Watkins is the main man going forward for Aston Villa. This match will have several chances given how the two sides play. Therefore, it will be attack versus attack. Watkins will be central for Aston Villa’s effort to win the match and retain their fight for a top-four berth.
In the absence of Cole Palmer, Madueke will be the creative spark from wide areas for Chelsea as they look to be dangerous and clinical in the final third in their bid to return to winning ways.
Aston Villa have generally lined up in a 4-2-3-1 formation for the most part of the season to devastating success. Free football predictions show that Unai Emery prefers a settled side, and thus is unlikely to change his side much ahead of hosting Chelsea on Saturday.
However, expert soccer predictions argue that Emery might be forced to adjust his side given their 1-3 defeat at home to Chelsea earlier in the season. His side will look to play with energy and tempo.
Mauricio Pochettino will retain his standard 4-2-3-1 formation; however, the personnel is likely to change with the absence of Cole Palmer, Gusto, and potential Enzo Fernandez.
Football predictions analysis shows that Chelseas will need to play with a high tempo, press from the front, and make Aston Villa uncomfortable if they are to get something from this match.
Aston Villa have demonstrated good form at home this season. They will be heavy favorites at Villa Park against a Chelsea side that is low on confidence.
Chelsea beat Aston Villa earlier this season in a 1-3 triumph at Villa Park. Given their form this season, however, football predictions favor the hosts.
The two sides are close. While Aston Villa are motivated by their fight for a return to the Champions League, Chelsea will focus on returning to winning ways and banishing the hammering against Arsenal from their memory by winning away at a top-four side.
The pre-match predictions heavily back a home win in the clash between Aston Villa and Chelsea at Villa Park. Football bet predictions highlight Aston Villa’s fight for the top-four and Chelsea’s lowly position on the table as evidence of Unai Emery’s side being the football pick to prevail on Saturday.
Pre-match odds show Aston Villa with impressive 2.21 odds to Chelsea’s longer 2.925. A draw is available on 22bet at 3.86 odds. Live prediction football will also start at kickoff on Saturday adding to the options on the site.

Chelsea’s humiliating 5-0 defeat at the Emirates highlights their low confidence and lack of organization against the rampant Arsenal side. A few days earlier, their profligacy in front of goal meant that they lost to Manchester City in the FA Cup semi-final.
Sapped of confidence, Chelsea will take on a rejuvenated Aston Villa fighting with Tottenham for a Champions League berth with four matches remaining in the season.
Aston Villa are the favorites to win the match and make it three consecutive wins in the Premier League and four unbeaten matches as the league moves toward its conclusion this season.
