Unai Emery's Aston Villa takes on Graham Potter's Chelsea as both sides look to build in practice ahead of the Premier League restart.

The Al Nahyan Stadium will play host to today's match between Aston Villa and Chelsea. It was a sticky final lap of form for Graham Potter ahead of the World Cup break, with five Premier League matches without a win. 49' - Hutchinson is played through by Jorginho on the break and has acres of space in front of him. This match could be more important than first meets the eye. He'll be fearing for the rest of the season. Chelsea are pressing with nowhere near the same intensity as they did in the early stages and Unai Emery's side looks very comfortable as things stand. 23' - Very uncomfortable viewing here as Broja heads off on a stretcher. 4' - Hutchinson cuts inside from the right flank and passes into Aubameyang inside the box, who cuts the ball back for the winger inside the area. Moments later Hutchinson gets the better of Digne on the right wing and cuts inside, firing a curled effort on to the post. 11' - Bailey breaks away and Villa look to be in behind again, as the Jamaican threads a ball through to the on-rushing Digne, but Hall recovers with a smart interception. 29' - Olsen shows a lot of the ball to Aubameyang in the six yard box and the Gabonese striker nearly gets a crucial touch to direct the ball goalwards. 83' - Hutchinson explodes away on the break and is pulled back by Douglas Luiz, who is lucky to escape a booking.

BirminghamLive brings you reaction from Aston Villa's 1-0 win over Chelsea in the inaugural CBF Al-Wahda Challenge Cup.

He was a handful for the young Chelsea centre-backs who struggled to keep a lid on him. He squandered a big chance to score Villa's second after being slipped through by McGinn - at least he's getting in the right positions. Took the ball, didn't shirk an opportunity to get involved and link play. He swept the ball over the top of Chelsea's defence in the first half to supply Watkins with a big chance to add Villa's second but Bettinelli saved well. Emery gave Raikhy a vote of confidence by starting him in this one. He made an excellent stop to deny Lewis Hall early in the second half. Made two crucial blocks in the first half after Mings gave the ball away cheaply. He was energetic throughout and looked like he was enjoying his football this afternoon. [John McGinn](https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/all-about/john-mcginn) scored the only goal of the game to crown Villa the inaugural CBF Al-Wahda Challenge Cup champions. The friendly in Abu Dhabi was Villa's second in three days - having also drawn with [Brighton](https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/all-about/brighton-hove-albion-fc) on Thursday - as Emery continues to implement his ideas on the group he inherited last month. He was involved in a mix-up with Konsa in the first half, where a simple call to either clear the ball or pass it out would have sufficed. Villa will now jet back into Birmingham next week ahead of the return of
