Chelsea vs. Aston Villa: Head-to-head record and past meetings

Surprise title contenders Aston Villa travel to Stamford Bridge on Saturday, aiming to inflict Chelsea's third Premier League home defeat of the 2025-26 season.

Unai Emery's side have won 11 of their last 12 top-flight matches, having failed to secure a victory in their first five league games.

The West Midlands club head into their penultimate match of 2025 on a 10-match winning streak across all competitions — seven in the league — and aim to secure their eighth consecutive top-flight victory this weekend.

With Enzo Maresca's Chelsea team winless in their past three away matches, the Blues would be pleased to return to West London, where they remain unbeaten in three, securing seven points from nine, and recorded a 3-0 victory in last season's corresponding fixture against Villa.

Here, Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at the head-to-head record and previous meetings between the two sides.

Head-to-head record

Previous meetings: 168

Chelsea wins: 70

Draws: 37

Aston Villa wins: 61

Rather unsurprisingly, Premier League giants Chelsea have the better of the past meetings with Aston Villa, winning 70 of the 168 matches between the two sides.

The Villans are no whipping boys in this fixture, though, winning on 61 occasions over the years, whilst the spoils have been shared 37 times.

Across 60 Premier League encounters, the West London side have dominated, securing 30 wins to Villa's 16, with 14 of those matches ending in stalemates.

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.

In December 2024, Chelsea eased to a 3-0 victory over Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge, where Cole Palmer was amongst the scorers, but Villa got their revenge two months later as Marco Asensio netted a brace to help Unai Emery's side come from behind and win 2-1 on home soil.
