Moisés Caicedo’s Chelsea continue their winning streak in the Premier League, achieving their third consecutive victory after beating Aston Villa 2-0. The Ecuadorian was a starter for the 90 minutes of the match and stood out in an unusual position for him, fulfilling duties as a right back, a tactical change implemented by his coach, Enzo Maresca.
Caicedo is known for his role as a central midfielder, but this time he adapted perfectly to the new scheme, playing in a line of three defenders during Chelsea’s attacks. This tactical modification was a success, and the British team achieved an important victory that keeps them in the fight for the top positions in the Premier League.
Chelsea’s perfect week began with a 2-1 win over Leicester and continued with a 2-0 win over Heidenheim in the Conference League. These results, along with goals from Enzo Fernández and Cole Palmer, placed Chelsea in second position, tied on points with Arsenal. This performance shows the good work of Maresca, who has managed to make a squad that initially seemed overloaded work.
The match against Aston Villa was also relevant for Enzo Fernández, who broke his goalless streak with two goals in one week. His goal against Aston was a right-footed shot from outside the area that made it 2-0 and consolidated the victory for the “Blues”. With Caicedo excelling in a new position and the team playing with greater verticality, Chelsea is beginning to find its best form.
