Defeats to Arsenal and Liverpool at Stamford Bridge are clear evidence that Chelsea aren't the force they were at home and that fact was underlined when they drew with Fulham on Boxing Day. It's only 21 months since Villa lost 7-1 here but they drew 3-3 back in January and will come into this game confident they are capable of getting a point.

The way Alex McLeish sets up his team they probably are, after all, they have drawn six of nine road games in the league this campaign. McLeish was delighted with the way his team defended in their 0-0 draw at Stoke on Boxing Day when they were bombarded with the high ball from set-pieces.



Match

I expect the blues to make use of home advantage this time around. They should be able to take the three points on offer.
Meanwhile, with the return of Ramires, villas-boas now have midfield options.
