Team News
Chelsea
Chelsea remain without knee victims Ben Chilwell and N'Golo Kante, while Trevoh Chalobah is still nursing a thigh problem and Mateo Kovacic recently tested positive for coronavirus.
Tuchel's midfield options were also depleted by Jorginho and Ruben Loftus-Cheek's absences in the Zenit draw, but the former could make his return to the matchday squad here.
Timo Werner has likely done enough to hold his place alongside Romelu Lukaku after his midweek brace, while Thiago Silva and Antonio Rudiger both ought to return to the backline.
Chelsea possible starting lineup:
Mendy; Azpilicueta, Silva, Rudiger; James, Jorginho, Saul, Alonso; Mount, Werner; Lukaku
Leeds United
As for Leeds, Liam Cooper and Kalvin Phillips both suffered thigh injuries in the draw with Brentford, while Bamford has now come down with a similar issue sustained in the same game.
Bielsa's attacking options have taken another hit with Rodrigo being ruled out for heel pain, while Robin Koch is ill, but Pascal Struijk should shake off hip pain to return to the fold.
Tyler Roberts - who is one booking away from a ban alongside Raphinha - can expect to hold his place up top with Bamford sidelined, while Phillips's spot in midfield will most likely be filled by Mateusz Klich.
Leeds United possible starting lineup:
Meslier; Dallas, Ayling, Llorente, Struijk, Firpo; Raphinha, Klich, Forshaw, James; Roberts
Prediction: Chelsea 3-0 Leeds United
