Football Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips
-------------------------------------
Chelsea will face Leeds United at Stamford Bridge in the third round of the EFL Cup, repeating last season’s FA Cup semi-final clash. Both teams enter the tie after securing comfortable 2-0 victories in the previous round against Luton Town and Nottingham Forest respectively.
Team Analysis:
Chelsea suffered their first defeat of the season against Arsenal but now turn their attention to the EFL Cup, where they have a strong record against Leeds and have lost only once in the third round in 15 years. Leeds remain unbeaten this season with two wins and two draws, although their recent League Cup history has been disappointing despite taking four Premier League points from Chelsea last season.
Player Situation:
Chelsea will be without Moises Caicedo, Marco Palestra, Jordan Henderson and Emmanuel Emegha, with Alonso expected to rotate his squad for the EFL Cup clash. Leeds are also dealing with several absences, while new signings Michael Zetterer and Jean-Matteo Bahoya could make their debuts.
Result Prediction:
Chelsea are expected to face a tight battle against Leeds, but their early attacking threat could give them the edge. Leeds may push the Blues all the way, yet Chelsea are tipped to stay composed and advance to the fourth round.
Predicted Result: Chelsea 2-1 Leeds United.
