Aston Villa manager Martin O'Neill says he is confident his side can end Chelsea's 85-match unbeaten home record this Sunday. O'Neill's men have made a bright start to this season, lying third in the Premier League table just a point behind Chelsea, and the manager sees no reason why they cannot pull off a shock result.
"I'm sure if we go to Stamford Bridge and get turned over, people will say it's not much to write home about there, but it's not our own view," O'Neill told Sky Sports.
"We're going into the game with loads of confidence. I feel we can win. That's a strong statement, but I have a lot of confidence in the side.
"They are playing with a lot of self-belief, which is so, so important. We have got a chance and I think we've got a chance in every game we play."
Villa are being tipped to be the first team since Everton in 2005 to break into the top four and a win against an injury-hit Chelsea side will go a long way to stamping their credentials as a potential Champions League side.
