Leeds United take on Chelsea in the Premier League this weekend. Here we have how to watch, team news, head-to-head, prediction, odds and everything you need to know.

A fantastic fixture takes place in game week 3 of the Premier League 22/23 season as Leeds take on Chelsea at Elland Road. The two sides will both be happy with the start they've made to this year's campaign, they both sit on four points after just two games and sit in 6th and 7th place in the table.

Antonio Conte's side will be gutted it wasn't a straight two wins after Harry Kane dispatched a last-gasp equaliser to get the draw in dramatic fashion at Stamford Bridge. Similarly, Jesse Marsch's team will also be frustrated not to have won both matches after they gave up a 2-0 lead to Southampton, with the Saints coming back to rescue a point.

With both sides looking to get back to winning ways - this should be a tasty encounter. So with this, here's everything you need to know regarding the fixture between Leeds and Chelsea.

Leeds have injury woes in the form of star striker Patrick Bamford. He hobbled off in the first half last weekend at Southampton and will most likely miss this fixture.

Junior Firpo and Liam Cooper are also in the medical room but should be back towards the end of August - whereas Luke Ayling, Mateusz Bogusz, and Stuart Dallas are all sustaining more long-term injuries.

As for Chelsea, Thomas Tuchel will be without the two key midfielders, Mateo Kovacic and N'Golo Kante, for at least a month. Kante pulled up with a hamstring injury during last Sunday's derby against Spurs while Kovacic had a flare-up of a knee problem he has been nursing.

Tuchel will also be watching the game from the crowd, as he received a red card in the last fixture which means he's obtained a touchline ban.

Leeds Predicted XI: Meslier; Kristensen, Koch, Llorente, Struijk; Adams, Roca; James, Aaronson, Harrison; Rodrigo

Chelsea Predicted XI: Mendy; James, Azpilicueta, Silva, Koulibaly, Cucurella; Loftus-Cheek, Jorginho, Havertz, Sterling, Mount
