0 39

The Premier League game between Leeds United and Chelsea and this is the preview from sportscliffs.

Leeds United have gather 4 points so far in two games in the Premier League following a win against Wolves in their first game and a draw against Southampton in their second.

Leeds have started beautifully well in the Premier League and they will seek to continue form when they host the Blues on Sunday.

Chelsea on the other hand had drama when they hosted Tottenham at Stamford bridge last week following a late goal from Spurs to make the game end 2-2.

Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel got into a heated and improper act with Tottenham boss Antonio Conte last week and likely to be suspended for the game this weekend.

Team News.

Meanwhile, Bamford has suggested that he will miss this game with a minor groin injury, although the forward has hinted that he could return before the end of the month.

Daniel James, who was sent off in the corresponding fixture last season, is likely to take his place in the attack, and that could prove to be the only change to the Leeds XI.

N’Golo Kante is expected to be absent for a number of weeks after sustaining a hamstring injury against Spurs.

With Mateo Kovacic also likely to stay sidelined with a knee issue, either Ruben Loftus-Cheek or Conor Gallagher will feature in the Chelsea midfield.

Leeds United possible starting lineup:
Meslier; Kristensen, Koch, Llorente, Struijk; Roca, Adams; Aaronson, Rodrigo, Harrison; James

Chelsea possible starting lineup:
Mendy; Azpilicueta, Silva, Koulibaly; James, Loftus-Cheek, Jorginho, Cucurella; Mount, Sterling; Havertz
