Leeds United vs Chelsea Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Premier League 2025-26

The Blues have won both of their last two games against the Peacocks.

Leeds United are ready to lock horns with Chelsea for their matchweek 14 fixture of the 2025-26 English Premier League. This is going to be an interesting outing between these clubs, which will take place at Elland Road.

The Peacocks have performed poorly in their last few matches. They have faced some negative outcomes due to their lacklustre performances. Leeds United are now in 18th place in the league table. They have secured three games in their first 13 league matches of the ongoing season.

Chelsea secured an important 1-1 draw against Arsenal in their previous league outing. Despite being reduced to 10 men, they were creating many problems for the Gunners. The Blues are undefeated in their last four matches and are now placed third on the Premier League points table.

Players to Watch

Lukas Nmecha (Leeds)

Lukas Nmecha was one of the goal scorers for the Peacocks in their previous encounter against Manchester City, but it was not enough to get Leeds United a win. He will be ready to lead his side in the attacking front yet again. The 26-year-old has found the net four times in 13 league matches this season.

Pedro Neto (Chelsea)

The Portuguese winger will look to be the main man in the attacking front for Chelsea. Even though he failed to score a goal in the last outing for his side, he was a constant threat to Arsenal’s defence. Pedro Neto has scored four goals and also has two assists in 12 Premier League appearances.
