‘This is a big game for Chelsea! Paul Merson gives his massive prediction for Chelsea vs Leeds United clash
The Blues will be hosting Leeds United at Stamford Bridge on Saturday and will be looking forward to be back to winning ways after poor recent form.
However, Chelsea 3-2 lost to West Ham last weekend, but Paul Merson has backed Chelsea to return to winning ways by beating Leeds United at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
“This is a big game for Chelsea. They were poor against a West Ham side that wasn’t really going anywhere and have a few defensive issues to fix at the moment. Paul Merson told Sportskeeda.
“Mendy has been absolutely outstanding so far but made a mistake against West Ham – Tuchel will just have to let it go at this point.
“Chelsea still have miles too much for Leeds, and they did give them the run-around last season.
“Leeds haven’t been major goalscorers in the Premier League this season and I think Chelsea will go back to keeping a clean sheet in this game.”
