Leeds United and Chelsea come into Saturday’s match at the respective low points of each of their seasons. Leeds sit in 17th place, clinging above the relegation zone with new manager Javi Garcia, just days after the Peacocks were eliminated from the FA Cup.
Chelsea lost to Southampton at home and then put in a lifeless performance on the road at Spurs in a 2-0 defeat to their bitter London rival on Sunday.
There are calls from within the Chelsea fanbase to sack Graham Potter, who has only been at the club since October but has also failed to meaningfully improve them. Chelsea have scored six goals in 12 matches since returning from the World Cup break. They’ve been unlucky in the finishing department, but it’s not as if the attack has produced at a consistently good rate.
Structural issues exist with the Chelsea attack right now, and a matchup with a porous Leeds defense could be just what the Blues need to show some life. At the other end, Garcia has caused a meaningful shift in Leeds’ attacking play that should improve their performances. Despite the poor form of both attacks, this game should feature chances at both ends.
