Chelsea drew 0-0 with Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge in the FA Cup fourth round on Friday It was a hard-fought encounter as both sides cancelled each other out for the duration Cole Palmer forced Emiliano Martinez into a good save midway through the first half The Blues were wasteful during the game, but Villa also missed some good chances late on MATCH FACTS CHELSEA : Petrovic 8; Gilchrist 6.5, Disasi 7.5, Silva 7, Badiashile 7; Caicedo 7, Fernandez 6 ; Madueke 7.5, Gallagher 6.5, Sterling 8 ; Palmer 7. Martinez was in inspired form for Villa and helped keep Chelsea at bay in the first half Douglas Luiz thought he had opened the scoring for Aston Villa, but saw his goal disallowed The Villa star tucked home after a well-worked corner but his effort was ruled out for handball Palmer missed another chance in the second half as neither side could break the deadlock Your browser does not support iframes. Aston Villa’s set-piece routines, inspired by their animated specialist coach Austin MacPhee, had been a feature of the first half and Chelsea made an initial mess of an attempt of their own before Palmer eventually volleyed wide. Having kept Villa in the tie in the first half, Martinez almost gifted Chelsea the lead with a poor clearance straight at Palmer though Chelsea’s star man miskicked his attempt to punish the World Cup winner.
