Chelsea vs Leeds United Betting Analysis<\/h2>\n

Graham Potter is now the books heavy favorite to go next in the sack race after yet another dismal performance against London rivals Tottenham at the weekend, and club owners Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali will be in town to preside over his next two games, and ultimately decide his fate at the club.<\/p>\n

Chelsea put up an almost comically bad 0.26 xG in that game against Tottenham at the weekend, just two weeks after Leicester City hung four goals on that same Spurs team, so the water is getting incredibly hot under Graham Potter\u2019s feet right now.<\/p>\n

Mauricio Pochettino is the bookies’ favorite to take over at Stamford Bridge should the board decide to get rid of Potter, with legend Zinedine Zidane and former boss Jose Mourinho also in the mix as well.<\/p>\n

Leeds meanwhile already made their change at the manager position, bringing in new permanent manager Javi Gracia last week as he got his team off to a flying start with a 1-0 home win over Southampton, before an FA Cup exit against Fulham on Tuesday in his subsequent game.<\/p>\n

Leeds won the last fixture 3-0 between these two sides at Elland Road back in August, but Chelsea have traditionally been far more reliable at home in this series, winning all of their previous five meetings against Leeds in this venue, and not having lost at Stamford Bridge since 1999.<\/p>\n

Poor Road Form A Concern For Leeds<\/h3>\n

Leeds own the Premier League\u2019s joint-lowest overall points tally this season away from home, having generated just one win and 0.50 PPG on the road this year.<\/p>\n

A major part of those road issues for Leeds has been their inability to shut down opposing offenses, with Leeds averaging the joint-lowest clean sheet percentage away from home this season at just 8%, and the 4th highest goals allowed record also at 1.92 GAPG.<\/p>\n

Offensive Woes Continue For Blues<\/h3>\n

With just one goal scored across the entire month of February, it\u2019s easy to pinpoint exactly why Chelsea have struggled as much as they have, putting up their worst season in the Premier League since 1996 on a points-per-game basis.<\/p>\n

Those goals scoring issues for the Blues haven’t just been restricted to February either, with Chelsea netting just six times across all competitions since the start of November.<\/p>\n

Chelsea vs Leeds United Expert Prediction<\/h2>\n

While Chelsea have continued to have ongoing concerns offensively this season, they face a team in Leeds on Saturday that have one of the worst defensive road records in the entire EPL this season.<\/p>\n

If Chelsea can\u2019t find the back of the net at home against a defensive side of that caliber, especially with all of their star-studded lineup, there\u2019d really be little point in limping on and allowing Potter to continue to next week\u2019s Dortmund game in the Champions League.<\/p>\n

Everyone from Cardiff to Accrington have found the back of the net against this Leeds side at home this season.<\/p>\n

However, while Leeds may have struggled to keep opponents out defensively on the road this year, they\u2019ve had no such issues at the other end, ranking top half in the league in both offensive scoring and offensive xG away from home this season.<\/p>\n

They have a massive 58% frequency rate in both teams finding the back of the net in their road games this season, the EPL\u2019s 3rd highest percentage overall as well.<\/p>\n

Take the Both Teams to Score – Yes prop on Saturday in the EPL matchup between Leeds United and Chelsea.<\/p>\n

Prediction: Both Teams To Score – Yes -115<\/strong><\/p>\n
