Won't Cahill be suspended on Sunday?
No.
He got a straight red for violent conduct (kicking Emerson off the ball) so  he may be banned  three games after the FA review it. He should be, but....

I'm not sure of the current situation with Injury's, but if Vlaar and Gabby were fit would you put them straight back in?

 I would be happy to see the same team that beat Liverpool to play at Chelsea.

Its a tough one. I'd probably put Vlaar back in. Gabby? No, no way.
Not that Herd has done anything wrong but Vlaar, Clark and Baker seem the right way to go for me.

                                    Guzan

                Vlaar              Clark            Baker
Lowton                                                              Bennett
                                 Westwood
                  Bannan                       Holman

                       Weimann          Benteke

Given, Herd, Lichaj, Delph (or KEA), Ireland, N'Zogbia, Agbonlahor

That's how I'd go.

1-0 to Villa.  Gary Cahill to get confused, score an own goal with a spectacular bicycle kick and be celebrating with the Villa fans when he realises his mistake.

A draw isn't out of the question, and I'd be pretty pleased with that I think, just to keep the unbeaten run going and the confidence up. Sadly, I think they might just beat us, and I'll guess it'll be 2-1 to them.

I would have thought the line up will be unchanged on Sunday.

I agree with Vlaar going back in ahead of Herd. If he doesn't, though, or if he isn't fit, I wouldn't be too sad, Herd's done really well.
