THE PREDICTION
Leeds' 1-0 win against Everton was in no doubt partly due to the return of Phillips ahead of the back four and Bielsa will be hoping to see a similar performance from their star man come Saturday. However, as the Argentinian boss will be well aware, their opposition this weekend is, on paper, a tougher opponent and aside from the quality Chelsea possess in terms of players, this side haven’t lost a game since only the second game of their campaign. Despite this commendable achievement, Chelsea have racked up four draws in the process, and this could turn into five on Saturday.
