Aston Villa's Ollie Watkins is one goal away from making history at Stamford Bridge on Sunday. He has scored match-winning goals in his last two Premier League away games against Chelsea, but no player has ever scored three such goals there. If Watkins scores again, he will be the first player to achieve this feat in Premier League history at Stamford Bridge. Aston Villa aims to win three consecutive away matches against Chelsea for the first time since 1933. Watkins has scored six goals this season and aims to surpass his previous season's total of 19 goals and 13 assists. Aston Villa's last victory at Stamford Bridge was in September 2023, when they won 1-0.
