Thomas Tuchel has picked his Chelsea side for tonight’s Premier League game away at Leeds United as he bids to stop the rot.
The Blues have not won any of their last three games and Tuchel will not want to see his side go into the weekend’s FA Cup final against Liverpool on the back of another disappointment.
There is also a risk of Chelsea potentially being caught by Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur in the race to finish in the top four and victory at Leeds tonight would all but end any thoughts of the Blues being overhauled.
Chelsea won the earlier fixture between the two teams this season, edging Leeds out 3-2 at Stamford Bridge.
Edouard Mendy is in goal for Chelsea tonight, while at the back Tuchel goes for Trevoh Chalobah, Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger. The wing-backs are Reece James and Marcos Alonso.
Further up the pitch the Chelsea manager selects Jorginho and Mateo Kovacic, while Christian Pulisic and Mason Mount support Romelu Lukaku.
Tuchel has options on the bench if he needs to make changes tonight, including Timo Werner and Hakim Ziyech.
