Chelsea return to Premier League action after a fortnight away for the international break as they welcome Aston Villa to Stamford Bridge.
The Blues have played their home games at the west London stadium since they were founded in 1905 but there has frequently been speculation they could leave for a new, higher-capacity ground in recent years. A decision on whether to move or stay put is expected later this year and in the meantime, Graham Potter cannot afford any distractions on the pitch.
Chelsea sit a lowly 10th in the Premier League after a 2-2 stalemate with Everton before the international break and will need a late-season resurgence to salvage European qualification in any capacity. There is still hope of a positive season, however, as the Blues defeated Borussia Dortmund to reach the Champions League quarter-finals, where they will face holders Real Madrid.
