Good afternoon, all, and welcome to our LIVE coverage of Aston Villa v Chelsea.

Full-time. Jose Mourinho celebrates rather mutedly, but those three points could prove invaluable. Villa got their goal and certainly looked good value for it - they'll feel disappointed to come away with nothing. Thanks for your company this afternoon.

Matic is down injured now. Or is it cramp? Courtois delays his goal kick.

Brad Guzan urges his team-mates forward before launching it long.

Ivanovic is solid down by the corner flag, stopping Sinclair from crossing.

Westwood's cross is searching again for Benteke's head, but Chelsea are defending in number to protect this win.

Benteke heads it backwards after a good cross from Hutton.

Azpilicueta is on the floor, so is Mikel, and there will be at least five more minutes added on.

Joe Cole takes ages to decide what he's going to do on the edge of the box. He has time and space. Eventually he opts to play it into Courtois's gloves.

Sinclair didn't help Gil out there, playing it through to him despite him being surrounded by three Chelsea players.

Neat triangles of passing in midfield aren't going to get you an equaliser. Eventually an optimistic ball forward is reached by Sinclair, but his cross is claimed by Courtois at the near post.

Brad Guzan is racing out of his goal and trying to launch a counterattack as time ticks away.

Sinclair is shielded from the ball by Ivanovic, and it's out for a goal kick.

Cuadrado takes Chelsea's corner, headed away by Westwood.

Excitement all round, Juan Cuadrado replaces Willian, Joe Cole replaces Andi Weimann.

Good sweeping cross in from Hutton on the right, and Courtois manages to claim this one with confidence.

Clark can't do anything with that Gil corner.

Good run and cross from Cissokho, and now Chelsea have Benteke lurking in the box. Corner.

Cleverley's had a good game today. He's replaced by Sinclair.

Mikel replaces Oscar.
