Chelsea – Aston Villa 0:0

Three days after the six against Middlesbrough that sent them to the League Cup final, Chelsea put in a disappointing performance against Unai Emery’s side and narrowly squeezed out a draw that set up a replay. Douglas Luiz found the back of the net in the 21st minute, but the goal was disallowed by VAR on a dubious offside claim, after which Villa struggled to threaten the goal. A number of saves by Emi Martins towards the end prevented the Blues from winning.

Fulham – Newcastle (Saturday, 21:00, Sport1)

The Magpies achieved only two victories in the last ten games – they beat Sunderland away in the third round of the cup and on December 16 they beat Fulham 0:3 at home. After a rest of almost two weeks, which was critical for a team that suffered a lot of injuries and its players were worn out, Eddie Howe’s players will again hope to defeat the Cottagers who are coming off the back of a 1-1 home draw against Liverpool on Wednesday, a result that was not enough for them to qualify for the League Cup final.
