Chelsea vs Leeds United – Predicted lineup and team news

Chelsea host Leeds United at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday while they aim to continue their perfect Premier League run under Liam Rosenior.

The Blues sit fifth in the table, trailing the top four by a single point. Liam Rosenior has sparked a massive transformation at Stamford Bridge. He has won his first four league games in charge. Chelsea return to the capital fresh from an emphatic victory at Wolves. There, Cole Palmer made history with a blistering first-half hat-trick. A victory today leaps them into the Champions League places. Furthermore, it avenges a stinging 3–1 defeat at Elland Road earlier this season.

Chelsea Team News

Liam Rosenior navigates significant defensive absences. Notably, a knee injury rules out Levi Colwill for the long term. Consequently, Wesley Fofana and Trevoh Chalobah anchor the backline. Hamstring problems also sideline Jamie Gittens and Tosin Adarabioyo. However, positive news arrives as captain Reece James could return to the bench after missing the last two matches.

Robert Sánchez starts in goal. Malo Gusto and Marc Cucurella flank the defence. In midfield, Enzo Fernández and Moisés Caicedo look to dictate the tempo. Further forward, Cole Palmer operates in the number ten role. He recently became the first player in Premier League history to record three first-half hat-tricks. Finally, João Pedro leads the attack, supported by Estêvão Willian and Pedro Neto from the wide positions. Chelsea must also break a midweek hoodoo; they have failed to win a night game so far this term.
