Unai Emery is targeting an eleventh consecutive win in all competitions. Here’s how to watch Chelsea v Aston Villa in the Premier League.
Villa ensured third place in the Premier League at Christmas, for what it’s worth, by beating Manchester United at Villa Park last weekend. Morgan Rogers scored both of Villa’s goals to deliver a seventh successive league victory.
As Villa target a return to the Champions League, matches against the teams around them take on an added sense of importance. Chelsea away is both a huge test of their mettle and a big opportunity to put down a serious marker.
What time does Chelsea v Villa kick off?
With the Premier League keeping to its regular weekend schedule and scheduling a standard Friday night match as the only fixture on Boxing Day, Villa’s away game at Chelsea will be played on Saturday.
As a television pick, it’s been bumped into the later slot after the 3.00pm kick-offs conclude.
Chelsea v Villa will kick off at 5.30pm on Saturday 27th December.
Where to watch Chelsea v Villa in the UK
The 5.30pm Saturday slot is of course a regular offering on Sky Sports as part of its mammoth Premier League TV deal.
As such, it’ll be the Sky Sports crew loading in at Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon.
Villa’s game at Chelsea will be available to watch live on Sky Sports Premier League, Sky Sports Main Event and the Sky Sports+ app.
