GALLERY: Villa continue Dubai training

Aston Villa have been going through their paces on their mid-season training camp in Dubai as they prepare for Sunday's fixture against Chelsea.

Following Thursday's 2-2 draw against Brighton & Hove Albion, Villa's first-team squad underwent a recovery session on Friday as they took to the gym and then the swimming pool at the club's base.

The Villans then resumed on the grass on Saturday, their final training session in the Middle East, under the watchful eye of global Lions Club supporters and a selection of Villa fans from all over the world who had made the trip.

Unai Emery's side face Chelsea on Sunday (ko 2.10pm GMT) at Al Nahyan Stadium in Abu Dhabi, with both teams competing for the inaugural CBF | Al Wahda Challenge Cup. 

The match is available live on VillaTV for supporters in the UK and Ireland, with tickets also on sale for the clash.
