Leeds vs Chelsea prediction

Leeds showed plenty of fight to come from two goals down against Man City on Saturday, but suffered late heartbreak when Phil Foden struck an injury-time winner for Pep Guardiola's men.

Daniel Farke's side have now lost their last four Premier League games, so will be relying on the Elland Road faithful to give them an extra push in this midweek fixture.

Chelsea overcame a Moises Caicedo red card in the first half of their contest with London rivals Arsenal on Sunday, even going ahead in the second half, to end up with a point in a 1-1 draw against the league leaders.

Enzo Maresca's men are now unbeaten in seven games across all competitions, and the Blues are clearly playing with confidence right now. The Blues are the natural favourites here, but after their spirited performance against Man City, we fancy Leeds to to find the net in front of their home crowd.
