Since the arrival of the new manager Liam Rosenior, Chelsea are doing more than well. The Blues are in a run of four consecutive wins in the Premier League. This allowed them to climb to 5th place in the standings – just one point behind the 4th Manchester United.
At the same time Leeds are not safe from relegation just yet. The Peacocks are 16th in the table with 29 points – this puts them six points ahead of the 18th West Ham and the relegation zone. They still need at least 11 points more to reach the psychological 40 points.
Chelsea News & Analysis
In their last game Chelsea achieved a 4th consecutive win in the league. The Blues faced Wolves away from home and scored three times for a comfortable 3-1 win. And guess who? It was Cole Palmer who scored a hat-trick and became the hero for Chelsea. Two of these goals were scored from penalties, though. Marc Cucurella assisted for the third one.
The return of Cole Palmer is great news for Chelsea. Probably the team’s biggest star, Palmer had some injury problems lately. But now he looks ready to roll again. His presence in the team could be decisive for the Londoners.
It wouldn’t make sense for Liam Rosenior to make many changes in the line-up against Leeds. Joao Pedro shall lead the attack again, supported by Palmer, Neto and Enzo Fernandez. This looks like the optimal thing for the manager to do.
Leeds United News & Analysis
Just like Chelsea, Leeds won their last match in the Prem. Daniel Farke’s boys faced Nottingham Forest at home, and crushed their opponents at the Elland Road – 3-1. Bogle and Okafor put the Peacocks ahead in the first half while Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored the third one. The Bulgarian international Ilia Gruev had a great game as well – he made a brace of assists for his teammates.
Ilia Gruev looks like the man in form in Leeds’ midfield at the moment. The Bulgarian had a great game against Nottingham – making two assists was just the cherry on the top for him. Gruev shall be very important for Leeds against Chelsea as well.
