Team News: Aston Villa vs. Chelsea injury, suspension list, predicted XIs

Sports Mole rounds up all of the latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's Premier League clash between Aston Villa and Chelsea.

On the final day of the Premier League season, Chelsea travel to take on Aston Villa knowing that a victory will book their place in next season's Champions League.

A crucial 2-1 victory over Leicester City last time out saw Thomas Tuchel's men move into third place, with a one-point lead over Leicester and Liverpool, and they will aim to secure another win on Sunday to confirm their top-four finish.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of the latest team news for the two clubs.
