Cole Palmer vs Morgan Rogers
There’s a lot of interesting matchups all over the pitch for Chelsea versus Villa, including the battle between Cole Palmer and Morgan Rogers in the No.10 position.
Palmer, 22, is now into his second season as Chelsea’s talisman. The left-footed playmaker is excelling in a central position behind Nicolas Jackson, although he’s without a goal or assist in his last three appearances.
Meanwhile, Rogers has elevated his game to new heights this season as Villa’s star attacking midfielder. It’s even led to the 22-year-old making his senior England debut, too.
