Leeds Vs Chelsea Preview Capital one cup

Leeds Vs Chelsea – Capital one cup

After a run of four wins from their last five games, the Whites will be confident of ending that run, despite the undoubted talent that Chelsea have in their ranks.

It looks like it is the perfect time for United to be playing the London outfit, after they have travelled 6,000 miles from Japan where they were competing in the World Club Cup.

Rafael Benitez simply won’t be able to play his strongest XI as they will be fatigued from the weekend; It’s a tough situation for the Spaniard though, as his team have fallen behind in the title race, they’re out of the Champions League and they lost in the World Club Cup final, this is by far their ‘easiest’ route to silverware this season.

Best match odds:

• Leeds – 18/5 Bet Victor
• Draw – 13/5 Boylesports
• Chelsea – 5/ 6 William Hill

Chelsea will be up against a tough outfit in Leeds, but an extremely hostile atmosphere, the sort that several Chelsea players will not have experienced before may be Leeds 12th man!

It is a sell out and it should be a really entertaining evening, and while it is tough to predict the line-up of Chelsea. Leeds could be ready to pounce and progress!

Recommendations:

• Leeds – to qualify – 9/4 bookies
• Both teams to score – 4/6 Stan James
• First booking – Leeds 3/4 William Hill
• Leeds +1 goal – 1/1 Paddy Power
