Aston Villa and Chelsea FC have a lot in common as they head into the penultimate weekend of the Premier League season. Both will play on Friday night, and take on a side that has reached the Europa League Final this season, despite having an atrocious league campaign. Villa welcome in Tottenham Hotspur, who currently sit 17th in the table while Chelsea takes on 16th place Manchester United. The Villans and Blues are level on points with 63, but it’s the southwest London club who are slotted in the fifth and final Champions League qualification slot.

Villa will never catch Chelsea in the goal differential tie-breaker, because they are just too far behind, at a -12 disparity. So they’ll need Chelsea to drop points, and make sure they take the maximum from these last two.
