Christian Pulisic soon will have a lot of competition for playing time.
Chelsea's American star has a chance to get a leg up on incoming Blues attackers Timo Werner and Hakim Ziyech with the Blues' eight remaining games, and Sunday's match against Aston Villa (7-5-17; 26 points) is a good place to start. While Chelsea (14-6-9; 48 points) can solidify their hold on fourth place with a win at Villa Park, Pulisic can do the same with a role in manager Frank Lampard's XI.
Aston Villa benefitted from a 1-in-9,000 error with the Premier League's goal-line technology in a 0-0 draw with Sheffield United on Wednesday, but the Villans were the better side. Though Villa failed to move out of a relegation spot Wednesday, they could climb two points clear if they manage to beat Chelsea on Sunday at home.
