Robert Sanchez Fires Warning Ahead of Aston Villa Clash: “We Want to Break Their Stride at Home”
Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez has sent a clear message ahead of tomorrow’s crucial Premier League showdown against in-form Aston Villa, insisting the Blues are determined to end their opponents’ remarkable winning run.
Speaking before the fixture, Sanchez praised Villa’s momentum but made it clear Chelsea have no intention of making life easy at Stamford Bridge.
“Aston Villa are a very good team, ten wins in a row, so of course we want to break their stride, especially at home. We don’t want anyone to get points from us at home,” Sanchez said. “We have trained well this week and we are going to go out there, give our best, try to get a clean sheet and win the game.”
Villa arrive in red-hot form, riding a ten-match winning streak that has propelled them into the upper reaches of the table, but Sanchez believes Chelsea’s home advantage and preparation could be decisive.
The Spanish shot-stopper also underlined the importance of defensive solidity, highlighting a clean sheet as a key target as the Blues look to secure all three points in front of their fans.
With confidence high in the Chelsea camp after a strong week of training, tomorrow’s encounter promises to be a high-intensity battle between a resurgent home side and one of the league’s most in-form teams. All eyes will be on whether Sanchez and Chelsea can deliver on their promise and bring Villa’s impressive run to an end.
