Aston Villa vs Chelsea live stream: How to watch Premier League fixture online and on TV today

Chelsea know they are one victory away from sealing a top-four finish in the Premier League and standing in their way are Aston Villa.

Thomas Tuchel’s side beat Leicester in what was effectively a play-off for a Champions League place heading into the final weekend, also gaining a measure of revenge for their FA Cup final defeat in the process.

Now they need to finish the job – but Dean Smith and assistant John Terry, formerly a Chelsea captain, will be aiming to see Villa end their own campaign on a positive note.

They saw off Tottenham in midweek and will now finish in 11th place regardless of the final day of the season – a significant improvement on surviving relegation with their last match a year ago.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the match.

What is the team news?

Ross Barkley has played his last game on loan as he cannot face his parent side. Matthew Cash, Morgan Sanson and Trezeguet are all out injured for Villa.
