Chelsea are looking to continue their very strong Premier League form when they welcome Leeds United to Stamford Bridge on Tuesday night.
Liam Rosenior currently boasts a 100% record in the competition, steadying the ship in the race to finish in the Champions League places.
The Blues are battling Manchester United for one of those places, and are relying on Axel Disasi at West Ham to stop them this week.

After Chelsea learnt the risk of rotation against the Hammers a few games ago, we have predicted they will not be looking to take these chances again against Leeds, a side that beat them earlier this season.
Chelsea fans do not want Benoit Badiashile to play against Leeds
Harsh on Santos, but at home, let’s get as many attacking players on the pitch as possible 💪
The Chelsea Chronicle gave TalkingPoints users the opportunity to have their say on our XI, and you can still do the same by signing up to TalkingPoints.
The general consensus from Blues supporters was that Benoit Badiashile should not be named in the starting side in what is another must-win game.
One user said: “No way do we need Badiashile, anyone but him….”
Another added: “Badiashile should be nowhere near the Chelsea squad. Why can’t our managers see what most of the fans can. He can’t play a forward ball to save his life.”
A third stated: “Badiashile, no way.”
Finally, one user said: “What the hell is Badiashile and Garnacho doing there?”

Despite appearances coming his way more regularly under Rosenior, it has still been tough for the Frenchman to establish himself in the backline.
He has just eight Premier League games under his belt this season, to add to just five in the previous campaign.
Injuries have been a constant struggle for the centre-back since making his £35m move, and the club are continuing to look at other options in the position.
There was a strong effort to bring in Jeremy Jacquet in January, and are expected to be back in the market for the position when the summer transfer window opens again.
