Chelsea vs Leeds United Preview and Team News

Chelsea Team News

Chelsea’s recent form has been rather disappointing. They’ve lost four of their last five games across all competitions, with a sole 7-0 win over Port Vale in the FA Cup offering encouragement.

The club have recently sacked manager Liam Rosenior, with Calum McFarlane appointed as interim coach for the remainder of the 2025/2026 season.

The most concerning aspect of their slump is that Chelsea have lost their last five Premier League games without scoring, a first since 1912.

They were recently beaten 0-3 by Brighton in the Premier League. The Blues put up a poor showing in the final third, creating no big chances and taking no shots on target.

Joao Pedro, Reece James, Filip Jorgensen, Levi Colwill, Cole Palmer, Estevao, and Jamie Gittens are all sidelined with injuries.

Chelsea predicted lineup vs Leeds United (4-4-1-1): Sanchez; Hato, Chalobah, Fofana, Gusto; Cucurella, Caicedo, Lavia, Neto; Fernandez; Delap.

Leeds United Team News

Leeds United have been in stronger form than their opponents. Although they have won just twice in their last five encounters, they remain unbeaten during that stretch.

The Whites are coming off a dramatic 2-2 draw with AFC Bournemouth, highlighted by a stoppage-time goal from midfielder Sean Longstaff that rescued a point that had seemed out of reach.

The former Newcastle United player came on in the 84th minute and recorded a 100% shooting accuracy, along with an xGOT of 0.84. Attacking midfielder Brenden Aaronson also delivered a perfect shooting performance and completed 83% of his passes.

Anton Stach is a doubtful starter for Leeds due to an ankle injury.

Leeds United predicted lineup vs Chelsea (3-4-2-1): Darlow; Struijk, Bijol, Rodon; Gudmundsson, Tanaka, Ampadu, Justin; Nmecha, Aaronson; Calvert-Lewin.

Chelsea vs Leeds United Prediction

  • Pick: Chelsea to win or draw
  • Odds: -294 (20Bet)
  • Correct score prediction: Chelsea 2-2 Leeds United

We expect Chelsea to win or draw. If the match ends level, the game will go to penalties. Despite their poor recent form, the Blues should still fancy their chances against Leeds.

They’ve beaten or drawn the Whites in eight of the last 10 meetings between the teams. Moreover, when these clubs last met in the FA Cup (fifth round) in February 2024, Chelsea secured a 3-2 win.

Chelsea vs Leeds United Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Both teams to score
  • Odds: -145 (20Bet)

We expect both sides to score. This bet also landed in their last FA Cup meeting in 2024. Overall, each of the last three encounters between these clubs across all competitions has seen them both find the net.

Pedro Neto has been one of Chelsea’s standout attackers, ranking third among FA Cup scorers this season with four goals, and he should play a vital role in the attacking third. Liam Delap, meanwhile, has three assists to his name.

For Leeds, Dominic Calvert-Lewin is in good form, with 12 goals across all competitions, while Lukas Nmecha has recorded three goal contributions in the FA Cup.
