Chris Sutton and Paul Merson agree on Chelsea vs Leeds prediction amid Graham Potter sack claim

Chelsea welcome Leeds United to Stamford Bridge in a must-win Premier League game to ease the pressure on Graham Potter. After just one victory so far in 2023, Potter's job at the Blues is under significant threat - although he still retains the support of co-owner Todd Boehly, at least for now.

The following two games, which also includes the Champions League second leg against Borussia Dortmund, could become make or break for Potter. Up against a relegation-threatened team, Chelsea should be favourites - although the same was true about the visit of Southampton last month and that game ended with an away victory.

On a positive note, Christian Pulisic, N'Golo Kante and Mateo Kovacic were all pictured back in full first-team training ahead of the clash. Thiago Silva will almost certainly be absent for at least a few weeks after the club revealed he suffered damage to his knee ligaments in the defeat to Tottenham last weekend.
