Leeds United vs Chelsea Prediction

Leeds United are in big trouble. After an excellent 2020/21 season, the club is currently 18th in the league, equal on points with 17th-placed Burnley with three games to go. Despite some impressive results since the arrival of Jesse Marsch as manager, Leeds United have struggled to cope with the tough fixture schedule.

Having faced Manchester City and Arsenal in their last two league games, they are now set to face Chelsea. There has been criticism aimed at the club's limited activity last summer, which saw the club sign Daniel James and Junior Firpo. Both players have been hit and miss so far.

Chelsea, on the other hand, are 3rd in the league, and have won one of their last five league games. The Roman Abramovich era is almost over, with Todd Boehly set to become the new owner of the club.

While changes seem likely behind the doors, there might be some big turnover amongst the playing staff as well. Chelsea have been in poor form of late, and are only one point ahead of 4th-placed Arsenal. Champions League football next season is not guaranteed yet.

Chelsea will be the favourites to win.
