Enzo Maresca has said that Chelsea's win over Aston Villa doesn't change his view that they are not contenders for the Premier League title.

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca claims his team are not ready to challenge for the Premier League title, despite sitting third after a comfortable 3-0 against Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea coach Enzo Maresca is not getting carried away with his young side's strong run of form, saying their 3-0 win over Aston Villa on Sunday does nothing to change his view that the Blues are not contenders for the Premier League title this season.

Cassie: The truth hurts... and the truth is Villa are a mediocre team. We don't have the quality in depth. We are a mid-table team. Unai Emery needs to buy a striker in January. If he, for whatever reason, sticks with Ollie Watkins, we will be lucky to finish in the top 10.

Chelsea face a stern test of their top-four credentials on Sunday as they host an Aston Villa side looking to get their own push for Europe back on track.  The Blues managed to navigate November without a single defeat and will be looking to make it two wins in a row in Premier League after last weekend's win against Leicester.
