\n

Chelsea will entertain Leeds United at Stamford Bridge this Tuesday night as they look to secure a good result at home in the Premier League. The Blues managed to earn an impressive 3-1 win away at Wolverhampton Wanderers recently, so they would be eager to keep their good form going in the league.<\/p>\n

Liam Rosenior will opt for the 4-2-3-1 formation and is expected to name an unchanged first team for this game. Therefore, Joao Pedro will lead the line for the West London outfit up top.<\/p>\n

Defence<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Robert Sanchez will function in goal for the Blues after he conceded one goal in his last league appearance. Trevoh Chalobah will continue to operate alongside Wesley Fofana at the heart of the Chelsea backline as they look to keep a good shape when defending inside his half.<\/p>\n

Malo Gusto will be a nailed-on starter as the right-back, while Marc Cucurella looks to prove his worth on the other side as the left-back. Both of them will try to go forward and express themselves inside the Leeds half.<\/p>\n

Jorrel Hato and Josh Acheampong will provide cover the defensive positions on the bench.<\/p>\n

Midfield<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Moises Caicedo will anchor the midfield along with Andrey Santos as they look to establish their superiority over the opposition at the centre of the park.<\/p>\n

The talented trio of Pedro Neto, Enzo Fernandez and Cole Palmer will play just ahead of them as part of the Chelsea attack. All three of them have to combine well if they want to cause some problems for the Leeds centre-backs this week.<\/p>\n

Alejandro Garnacho and Estevao will have to settle for a spot on the bench and might come on to influence the game in the second 45 minutes if required. However, Jamie Gittens will be sidelined for this clash due to a thigh injury.<\/p>\n

Attack<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Joao Pedro will lead the charge for the Blues in the final third. He has to find a way to be a real threat up top.<\/p>\n

Liam Delap and Marc Guiu will be named on the bench as they await their chance to make an impact in the final quarter of the game if the Blues are in need of a goal by then.<\/p>\n
