Chelsea are set to host Aston Villa at the Stamford Bridge in an exciting fourth-round clash of the FA Cup 2023-24 on Friday, January 26, (January 27, Saturday - IST). Chelsea reserved their spot in the fourth round by registering a comfortable 4-0 win over Preston North End earlier this month. On the other hand, Aston Villa moved past Middlesbrough by defeating them 1-0 in the previous round clash, owing to Matty Cash’s 87th goal.
The Blues are not having a season as per their expectations, and they may not be able to reserve their berth in the top four of the Premier League this season. They currently sit at the ninth spot in the Premier League standings with 31 points from 21 matches. Aston Villa, on the flip side, are having the season of their dreams, with them sitting in the fourth spot in the league table. The visitors remain unbeaten in their last three matches and are in a better place for their forthcoming tour to the Chelsea home.
