Evening. Chelsea host Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge – and is there a more unwelcome visiting team? Unai Emery’s side are on a jaw-dropping run of 10 consecutive wins in all competitions. Momentum, baby. They also have a player in Morgan Rogers capable of bending a game to his will, even if those around him drop their levels. The battle between Rogers and Cole Palmer will be a must-watch, and one Thomas Tuchel will be relishing. Kick-off is at 5.30pm.
