Chelsea booked their place in the FA Cup fifth round with ease as they beat Aston Villa 3-1 at Villa Park.

The Blues headed into the game on the brink of a crisis but they put an end to any doubt of a cup exit in the opening stages.

Conor Gallagher opened the scoring before Nicolas Jackson added another in the first half an hour for Mauricio Pochettino's side.

Enzo Fernandez then scored a superb free-kick from range to wrap up the win in style.

Unai Emery saw his side grab a late consolation through Moussa Diaby but it's Chelsea who will take on Leeds at home in the next round.
