Chelsea v Aston Villa Bet Builder preview

Chelsea-Chelsea double result

Chelsea were 2-0 up at half-time in their wins over Crystal Palace and Arsenal and also took an early lead in the 1-1 draw at Liverpool last time out.

Villa conceded in the first ten minutes against Watford and Brentford while Newcastle's Callum Wilson missed a great chance in the first five minutes at Villa Park so the visitors could be vulnerable in the early stages.

Under 3.5 cards

Reece James's straight red card at Anfield was a rare blot on Chelsea's fine disciplinary record under Thomas Tuchel and the Blues' first two league games featured just three yellow cards, all of which were shown to Arsenal players.

Villa have had a spiky start to the season but Dean Smith knows his players must keep their heads against the European champions and they had just one player booked on last season's trip to Stamford Bridge.

Under 3.5 goals

All four meetings between these clubs since Villa returned to the top flight have featured goals at both ends but all of them also rewarded backers of under 3.5 goals.

Chelsea showed their defensive quality with ten men at Anfield last time out and have kept 11 clean sheets in 14 home games in all competitions under Tuchel.
