Aston Villa edge Chelsea in Argentine clash, Enzo starts | OneFootball

After enduring almost 60 minutes where their opponent had them pinned back, the surprising Aston Villa once again turned the game around and defeated Chelsea 2-1 away at Stamford Bridge in the 18th round of the 2025-2026 Premier League.

The team of Emiliano Dibu Martínez achieved their 11th consecutive victory by counting the 8 straight wins in the Premier League and the 3 consecutive successes in the UEFA Europa League.

With two goals from Ollie Watkins, who came on at the 58th minute for the Argentine Emiliano Buendía, the Villains secured a huge success on foreign soil and reached 39 points, leaving them 3 points behind the leader Arsenal, whom they will face away next Tuesday, December 30.

Meanwhile, the recent Club World Cup champion continues with their irregular performance in the English tournament and the UEFA Champions League. In fact, in the Premier League, they have won only 1 of the last 6 matches. In the next round, Chelsea will host Bournemouth on December 30.
