Leeds United hosts Chelsea in round 28 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, March 13th at Elland Road (Leeds)
Leeds returned to the Premier League following the results of the last draw. And the Peacocks show decent football, which allowed them to practically guarantee the preservation of their place in the elite. But in recent matches, Bielsa's men were stable in only one thing: they were not at all impressive. On Monday they played with West Ham, and everything was decided in the first half an hour. By the 28th minute, Lingard and Dawson had upset Meslier twice, which allowed the Hammers to go into “keep-the-score” mode and ultimately save 2-0. For the Peacocks, that defeat was already the 4th in the last five rounds. Moreover, Bamford and company scored in only one of the last four matches (against the crisis-ridden Southampton).

Chelsea was failing the season, and Lampard could not do anything about that. Parting with Frank was expected, despite his unconditional status as a legend and a successful last season. Moreover, the bosses quickly managed to lure such a specialist as Tuchel in London. Thomas began to show his class from the very outset, albeit not from the 1st match (a 0-0 draw with the current Wolverhampton cannot be called a positive result). In fact, the Blues failed only one match versus Southampton, and then the result was 1-1. They also shared points with Manchester United, but the remaining eight opponents were beaten almost without goals conceded. And don’t forget that Chelsea played against Tottenham and Liverpool in the Premier League and Atletico in the Champions League. On Monday, Everton also fell, conceding two unanswered goals after Godfrey's blunder and Jorginho's penalty kick.
Chelsea gained four victories in the last five head-to-head matches, including in the current championship. In December, having conceded already in the 4th minute, the Pensioners won 3-1 at Stamford Bridge. Leeds is not in the best shape right now, and its decline coincided with the rise of Chelsea. We bet that the Blues will be able to beat the Whites.
Prediction for the match: Chelsea to win
