Chelsea will be taking Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge in the fourth round of the FA Cup as the Blues look to do well in another Cup competition. Mauricio Pochettino saw his team reach the Carabao Cup final, where they will face Liverpool in the summit clash. Their position in the English Premier League is not what the management would have hoped for and it is highly unlikely they will make it to the Champions League next season. If they can win these Cup competitions, Mauricio Pochettino will have some breathing space. Aston Villa have done well to be in the top four in the league and they are no pushovers under Unai Emery. Their ability to create chances makes them a tough team to defend against. Chelsea versus Aston Villa will be telecasted on the Sony Sports Network and streamed on the Sony Liv app from 1:15 am IST.

Malo Gusto and Cristopher Nkunku are likely to return to first-team action but it will be interesting to see if they make the matchday squad. Romeo Lavia, Wesley Fofana, Reece James, Marc Cucurella, and Lesley Ugochukwu are all injured and out of the clash. Nicolas Jackson is playing for Senegal in the Africa Cup of Nations and will not be available. Cole Palmer will play as the false striker with Conor Gallagher behind him as the playmaker. Raheem Sterling will be the key player in attack for the hosts.
Matty Cash, Ezri Konsa, Pau Torres, and Alex Moreno make up for a stable back four for the visitors. Ollie Watkins and Moussa Diaby will be the front two in attack with Douglas Luiz and Boubacar Kamara the central midfielders. John McGinn will play out wide and the pace of Leon Bailey should come in handy from the right wing. FA Cup 2023-24: David Brooks Shines as AFC Bournemouth Defeats Swansea City to Enter Fifth Round.
