Aston Villa boss Unai Emery says there'll be no underestimating Chelsea in their FA Cup Fourth Round replay.

Villa meet Chelsea having drawn 0-0 in London.

Emery said: "I expect a good Chelsea. We drew there but we struggled in the first half a lot. They were better than us. In the second half we imposed our idea and our game plan. We had chances to score and win but we didn't deserve to win.

"Tomorrow I expect the best Chelsea because they got to the final in the Carabao Cup. This competition is very important because they are not in Europe.

"They have a good coach and they are improving a lot, they lost to Liverpool, but it can happen. Wolves played very well and beat them.

"Tomorrow, my expectation is that they give their best performance. The first one of us it to try and respect them and prepare as best as possible."
