[Teams] Aston Villa vs Chelsea: Confirmed Line-Ups

Chelsea will be hoping to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League when they take on Aston Villa at Villa Park this afternoon.

Jose Mourinho is without Filipe Luis as the Brazilian remains out with a calf injury so Cesar Azpilicueta starts at left-back. Cesc Fabregas is also still out with a hamstring problem so Ramires starts alongside Nemanja Matic in midfield.

Gary Cahill is recalled in defence with Kurt Zouma dropping out, while Didier Drogba leads the line in place of the suspended Diego Costa. New signing Juan Cuadrado starts from the bench.

Here are the confirmed line-ups:

Aston Villa

Guzan, Hutton, Okore, Clark, Cissokho, Westwood, Delph, Cleverley, Agbonlahor, Weimann, Gil.

Subs: Given, Vlaar, Bacuna, Sinclair, Cole, Benteke, Sanchez.

Chelsea

Courtois; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Azpilicueta; Ramires, Matic; Willian, Oscar, Hazard; Drogba.

Subs: Cech, Zouma, Ake, Mikel, Loftus-Cheek, Cuadrado, Remy.
