Prediction: 2-1
Aston Villa
Chelsea will be looking to make amends for a heart-breaking loss to Arsenal when they welcome Aston Villa at their Stamford Bridge on Matchday 16. The Blues made a flying start to the season, but they do not seem to be at their sharpest ahead of Monday’s clash. Timo Werner produced a poor display in the London derby, and, as a result, he is likely to drop to the bench. Summer signing Hakim Ziyech should be the only absentee in the home team.
The Villans, on the other hand, have been in a splendid form of late, with the team rolling over both WBA and Crystal Palace in the previous two league matches. Important defender Tyrone Mings, though, misses Monday’s match through suspension, and seeing that Chelsea are a real force to be reckoned with at home, the newcomers are likely to return to Birmingham empty-handed.

Highlighted Player (Timo Werner):
Timo Werner is a German starlet, who began his senior career at Vfb Stuttgart. The German forward, who was born in Stuttgart on March 6, 1996, scored 13 goals in 95 appearances in the league for Die Schwaben and in 2016 he moved to fellow Bundesliga side Leipzig and he impressed with the Red Bulls in the 2016/2017 Bundesliga campaign, scoring 21 goals in the process.
To make things even better for the talented attacker, he represented Germany at the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup and it has to be noted that he provided an assist for Lars Stindl in the title game. Despite the fact that coach Joachim Low rested star players at the tournament in Russia, the Germans eventually won the trophy.
Timo Werner played for the Germany U17 team as well and he won the silver medal with die Mannschaft at the 2012 UEFA European Championship. His main position is centre forward, but he is used as a winger as well. Timo Werner’s contract with Leipzig should expire on June 30, 2020.
Highlighted Team (Aston Villa):
Aston Villa is one of the three clubs that dropped to the Championship at the end of the 2015/2016 Premier League campaign. The Villans host their rivals at Villa Park, the stadium that was opened in 1897 and its’ capacity is 42,682. However, it has to be noted that the highest attendance recorded at the stadium was 76,588 when Aston Villa faced Derby County in the FA Cup back in 1946.
Aston Villa’s fiercest rivals are Birmingham City and West Bromwich Albion. Nonetheless, the rivalry between Aston Villa and Wolves and Coventry City is big as well. Aston Villa have won seven First Division (Premier League) trophies, with the team clinching seven FA Cup trophies as well.
The team’s biggest success, though, came in 1982 when they won the European Cup. The Villans defeated Bayern Munich (1-0) in the title game and Peter Withe was named the man of the match.
