Aston Villa at Chelsea 12/4/19 - Premier League Picks & Predictions

Chelsea have not had it easy lately and are struggling to get results, but will now look to change that when they will host Aston Villa on Wednesday. Aston Villa are coming off a solid result against Manchester United and will look to keep it going.

Aston Villa (4-7-3) took an early lead in their away match against Manchester United only to see their opponents overturn the lead in their favor. Even so, Aston Villa pulled even for the final 2-2 and have now grabbed four points in their last two matches. They are now sitting at the 15th spot of the league table with 15 points, three ahead of the red zone. However, they have struggled to get results on the road (1-5-1), despite scoring in five of those matches.

Chelsea (8-4-2) had a lot of chances to score against West Ham last week but ended up losing that match by 1-0 at home. They have not won any of their last two Premier League matches and have won just once in their last five in all competitions (1-2-2). The Blues are sitting at the 4th spot of the league table with 26 points, three behind Manchester City. They have a 3-2-2 record at home, winning just one of their last four in all competitions.

Chelsea have traditionally been excellent as hosts against Aston Villa, losing just once here since 2002 (11-1-3). Moreover, they have won each of the last four here against Villa, scoring 15 goals and conceding just one. These are two very offensive teams with not great defenses, so I am going with the Over 3.25 Goals here.
