Chelsea Preview – Can Chelsea continue solid run?
Frank Lampard’s Chelsea outfit produced a stunning midweek display with a resounding 4-0 win away from home at Spanish La Liga side, Sevilla, in the Champions League which not only secured The Blues’ place in the knockout phase of the competition but also extended their unbeaten run in all competitions to 12 matches.
Eight wins out of these 12 matches have helped enhance Chelsea’s battle on both the European and domestic fronts and has helped the hosts up into the top four, sitting in 3rd place prior to this clash against Leeds United.
Following a 2-0 defeat to Liverpool in their opening home match of the season, Chelsea have since recovered by picking up wins over Crystal Palace 4-0 and Sheffield United 4-1 along with picking up points in draws with Southampton and Tottenham, and they’ll be keen to extend this run at home when Leeds visit.
Leeds United Preview – Can Leeds strike again on the road?
Leeds United registered a 1-0 win away from home at Everton last time out in the Premier League and they’ll be looking to claim another scalp in the shape of Chelsea at Stamford Bridge this Saturday as the Yorkshire club look to move into the top half of the division.
That recent victory at Goodison Park ended a run of three league matches without a win though as the visitors had previously suffered back-to-back defeats against Leicester City and Crystal Palace, both in heavy 4-1 losses, along with a 0-0 draw at home with Arsenal.
Despite defeats at Liverpool and Crystal Palace, Marcelo Bielsa’s high-pressing game has also reaped rewards on the road with wins at Sheffield United, Aston Villa and Everton but they’ll be up against a strong Chelsea outfit in this clash.
