Chelsea head into the weekend game on the back of an encouraging comeback against Newcastle, where second-half goals from Reece James and Joao Pedro saw us cancel out Nick Woltemade’s first period double for the hosts and draw 2-2.

Next up for Enzo Maresca’s side is a clash with Aston Villa on Saturday, with the game scheduled for 5.30pm and set to be shown live on Sky Sports.

As we build up to the clash with Unai Emery’s men, the Blues were putting in the work at Cobham today with an intense gym session the order of the day.

Skipper James and fellow scorer Joao Pedro were both pictured, while the likes of Enzo Fernandez, Marc Cucurella and Pedro Neto were all putting in the work.

Estevao Willian, who missed the clash with the Magpies, was spotted in the gym and it’s expected that Maresca will give an update on him when he holds his pre-Villa press conference at 9.30am tomorrow [Wednesday].
