Aston Villa fans travelling to Chelsea for our Carabao Cup clash on Wednesday are reminded of the Covid-19 procedures in place at Stamford Bridge.

This will be checked upon entry. The Lateral Flow tests can be obtained free of charge by clicking on the link; https://www.gov.uk/order-coronavirus-rapid-lateral-flow-tests
- All supporters/visitors will be required to wear face coverings/masks in all indoor areas of the stadium, including the concourses, except when they are eating or drinking.
- Face coverings/masks are not required when seated or walking outside the stadium.
