Aston Villa’s decent start to the campaign has stalled somewhat. Unai Emery’s men head to Stamford Bridge without a win in seven games, although an extremely harsh VAR call did halt them from beating Juventus through a last-gasp Morgan Rogers winner in the Champions League on Wednesday.

After a strong start to the season, Heidenheim have fallen into a slump in the Bundesliga, where a six-game winless streak has seen them drop to 15th. Their most recent defeat came at the weekend against Bayer Leverkusen, where they led 2-0 early on but eventually lost 5-2.
