Leeds United vs Chelsea

image

As we enter the final phase of the 2021/22 Premier League campaign, Chelsea are fighting to seal a top-four finish while Leeds United are battling for survival as the two sides lock horns on Wednesday night at Elland Road.

After enjoying a brief positive phase following Jesse Marsch’s appointment as Marcelo Bielsa’s replacement, Leeds United find themselves staring at the barrel in the relegation zone. With Burnley and Everton racking up positive results, the Whites have dropped to 18th place in the table, failing to win their last three matches, losing each of their previous two to Manchester City and Arsenal.

Chelsea have won just one of their last five league outings and are without a victory in their previous three, most recently being held to a 2-2 draw by Wolves. And with the FA Cup final against Liverpool coming up this weekend, Thomas Tuchel’s side could have their eyes on that game, which Leeds might look to capitalise on.

Chelsea are currently third in the Premier League table, with Arsenal just a point below them in fourth, while Tottenham are five points behind in fifth. The Blues still need four points from three games to confirm a top-four berth. But with home games against Leicester City and Watford coming up after the Leeds encounter, it should help them get over the line.
