Home
Leeds United
Leeds are tough to score against in front of their own fans at Elland Road, though they don't create a great deal themselves.
Away
Chelsea
One of the league's best sides. Chelsea should have most of the ball on the road at Elland Road, so the question is whether Leeds can stay compact for 90 minutes.
Match preview
Chelsea visit Elland Road to face Leeds United in the 2026/27 Premier League. We project 1.28 expected goals for Leeds against 1.54 for Chelsea, and that gap drives our 43% rating for Chelsea. Check the team sheets, released roughly an hour before kick-off, because one absence can shift the odds more than anything else.
