Aston Villa and Chelsea were both held to draws on a frustrating Premier League matchday that saw each club miss the chance to climb the table. The results leave both sides with only a single point apiece from their respective fixtures, denting their ambitions at a crucial stage of the season.
Neither club could find a decisive breakthrough, and the stalemates underscore the fine margins separating mid-table congestion from the European qualification places.
