Head-to-head record
Previous meetings: 167
Chelsea wins: 70
Draws: 37
Aston Villa wins: 60
Rather unsurprisingly, Premier League giants Chelsea have the better of the past meetings with Aston Villa, winning 70 of the 167 matches between the two sides.
The Villans are no whipping boys in this fixture, though, winning on 60 occasions over the years, whilst the spoils have been shared 37 times.
In front of 30,000 supporters in the Second City, Villa and Chelsea played out an uninspiring goalless draw during their first-ever meeting in December 1907, when both sides were fighting for the top-tier title.
The Birmingham-based club enjoyed an eight-game unbeaten run against the Blues between 1907 and October 1913, when goals from Harold Halse and Henry Ford secured the West Londoners' maiden victory in this fixture.
Chelsea are able to boast the largest margin of victory in matches between the two sides, with the Blues' 2012-13 crop smashing Villa 8-0 at Stamford Bridge two days before Christmas in 2012.
That battering in the capital equalled Chelsea's biggest-ever league win, with the Blues also beating Wigan Athletic by the same scoreline in May 2010.
After securing back-to-back successes over the Blues in 2023, Villa are winless across their last four competitive meetings with Chelsea, suffering disappointments in both the Premier League and FA Cup.
The most recent battle between the two sides resulted in an afternoon of fun for Chelsea in the Premier League at Stamford Bridge, where Cole Palmer was amongst the goalscorers during a 3-0 victory in December 2024.
