Chelsea take on Leeds hoping to bounce back after a costly defeat at the hands of West Ham last weekend.

The Blues were riding high on top of the Premier League, but they now sit two points away from first place after Manchester City and Liverpool continued their winning streaks.

Thomas Tuchel’s men are the only team in the top six not to win their last match and while one bad result won’t singlehandedly derail their season, how they respond to adversity will define it.

Leeds players have had to dig deep to find points by any means necessary in 2021/22 and they have a frightening run of games to contend with now.

Marcelo Bielsa’s men face Chelsea, Man City and Liverpool all away from home in their next four games. The other match? A home clash against Arsenal.

Our prediction: Chelsea v Leeds

Leeds are doing just about enough to keep their heads above water this term. This feels like what their first season back in the Premier League should have been about.

They have been dealt a double blow after the long-awaited return of Patrick Bamford lasted half an hour before he scored a 95th-minute equaliser against Brentford and picked up a hamstring injury, while key midfielder Kalvin Phillips has been ruled out for two months.

Chelsea must capitalise on Leeds’ weakened state. Romelu Lukaku needs to find his feet over the festive period as he returns to fitness.

Our prediction: Chelsea 2-0 Leeds (6/1 at bet365)
