Team News
Chelsea
Thomas Tuchel will opt for the 3-4-3 formation allowing Mason Mount, Kai Havertz and Raheem Sterling to relentlessly attack the opposition. However, N’Golo Kante will remain sidelined after sustaining a hamstring injury in the previous fixture, which makes Jorginho an integral part of Tuchel’s midfield now. Cesar Azpilicueta could play in the back three, allowing Reece James to return to his preferred wing-back position.
Chelsea Predicted XI
Mendy; Azpilicueta, Silva, Koulibaly; James, Loftus-Cheek, Jorginho, Cucurella; Mount, Havertz; Sterling
Leeds United
Jesse Marsch will opt for the 4-2-3-1 formation with a single striker to lead the line against the Blues. Leeds remain without Patrick Bamford who has suffered a minor groin injury, so Daniel James would replace him in the attack. Junior Firpo, Luke Ayling and Stuart Dallas also remain on the sidelines.
Leeds United Predicted XI
Meslier; Kristensen, Koch, Llorente, Struijk; Roca, Adams; Aaronson, Harrison, James; Rodrigo
