After just one goal scored in the last three games, Leeds United are in desperate need of a hero in front of goal as they return to Elland Road to host Chelsea on Wednesday.
Defeat to Man City and Arsenal of late have left them in the relegation zone with just three matches left to play, with Jesse Marsch needing to find far more consistency and resilience in his players at both ends of the pitch in a hurry.
Rodrigo may return to the XI and Dan James could be asked to play in attack as they seek goals and points to escape the drop, while Chelsea could well make life marginally easier for them if they heavily rotate the team ahead of the FA Cup final at the weekend.
A few seniors could be rested to preserve them for Wembley, but Romelu Lukaku’s return to scoring form at the weekend poses a new problem for Thomas Tuchel to juggle.
Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the match.
