FC Chelsea vs Leeds United 05.12.2020
It was always a matter of when, not if, the high-powered Chelsea squad assembled this summer would start firing from all cylinders. After several false starts, Lampard’s squad seem to be getting their act together at just the right time. They have gone unbeaten in their last 12 games across all competitions, winning 8 of them and drawing 4. The statement win came in their last match at Sevilla this midweek which they won 4-0 to secure the top slot in their Champions League group.
Leeds meantime, despite just earning promotion to the top tier league this season, have not been pushovers by any stretch of the imagination. They have been anything but and some of their top performances have come against the top sides in the league. In just their last two fixtures, for instance, they played Arsenal off the park, despite the goalless stalemate, and they beat Everton 1-0 in their own backyard last weekend
We expect a competitive game here but we feel Chelsea have just a bit of that extra quality to get all three points at stake considering their recent performances and the fact that Lampard has an almost 100% fit squad to choose from
