Chelsea will be looking to go a step closer of finishing in the top four as the Blues look to sink Leeds United at Elland Road further and keep their distance over Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal. Thomas Tuchel's side have picked up just one win in their last five league outings and are now just a point the Gunners who sit in fourth-place.
The Blues are the favourites with Betfred ahead of the clash at 7/10 while Leeds are 18/5 and a draw is 3/1. The hosts are winless in their last seven meetings in all competitions since their 2-0 home win back in December 2002.
Tuchel's side need to improve and quickly otherwise they will find themselves clinging on to Champions League qualification as Arsenal look to go five wins from five tomorrow in the North London Derby and Spurs are only five behind their west London rivals with three games to go. They have a decent record against Leeds United and with Jesse Marsch's side struggling to find some momentum, it is theirs to lose.

Marsch's time at Leeds has not gone to plan with three wins in nine for the relegation-threatened club as they look to make a late recovery from second-season syndrome. Everton travel to Watford and many Leeds fans will be keeping an eye on the latest scores from Vicarage Road in hope avoiding relegation is still achievable.
