Chelsea secured their place in the fifth round of the FA Cup with victory over Aston Villa.
The Blues recorded an impressive 3-1 victory at Villa Park to clinch a spot in the next round. Conor Gallagher, Nicolas Jackson and Enzo Fernandez scored the all-important goals for Mauricio Pochettino's team to secure their place in the fifth round.
Moussa Diaby scored what proved to be a late consolation goal for Villa, and denied Djordje Petrovic a clean sheet. Chelsea will now prepare to face Leeds United in the fifth round of the FA Cup, which will take place later this month at Stamford Bridge.
Leeds are impressing in the Championship this season under manager Daniel Farke. The Elland Road club needed a replay to get past Plymouth Argyle in their fourth-round tie on Tuesday night, and are currently in third place in the Championship table just one point adrift of the automatic promotion spots.
Chelsea have Premier League and Carabao Cup games between now and their return to FA Cup action. The victory over Villa keeps the Blues' hopes alive of winning a cup double in Pochettino's first season in charge.
Chelsea vs Leeds United will take place on Wednesday, February 28 at Stamford Bridge. The game will be just three days after the Blues face Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley Stadium.
