Match Preview
Leeds cruised into the third round courtesy of a second round win at Nottingham Forest, with both Dan James and James Justin still ending the night with fewer goals than first names.
Chelsea were handed a home tie against League One side Luton Town and they too won 2-0. Danny Welbeck grabbed his first Chelsea goal in the process to help set up an enticing encounter with the West Yorkshire side.
Leeds have won once and drawn twice in the Premier League this season. After playing three of their four matches across two competitions away from home, manager Daniel Farke can take encouragement that they can be a robust proposition on the road.
The last time they won at Stamford Bridge was in December 1999, when a Stephen McPhail double either side of Frank Leboeuf’s red card bolstered their interests at the top of the Premier League table.
League Cup history is weighted very much in favour of Chelsea. They won at Elland Road in 2001 and 2012, and drew there before winning a replay in 1969-70. They met again in the FA Cup final that season.
FourFourTwo’s prediction
Chelsea 2-1 Leeds United
Chelsea couldn’t overcome the Premier League champions but their depth should give them an advantage in the EFL Cup.
