Leeds vs. Chelsea

Live on Sky tonight, and well worth a watch I reckon.

A lot of history and ill-feeling between the two sides, much of which I wasn't really aware of to be honest. Potential for it to get very tasty indeed both on and off the field.

As far as the football goes, a Chelsea side just off the plane from Japan, many of whom look like they can't be arsed at the moment, coupled with a very intimidating Elland Road - I fancy a Leeds win, and Chelsea out of a second tournament in three days. Expecting some very unhappy Chelsea fans and an uncomfortable night for Benitez.

What do yous reckon?

a lot of people will fancy Leeds for this one i reckon, especially considering Chelsea will be tired as you mentioned, plus Leeds defeated Everton in the last round. so for that reason i can see Chelsea winning this one comfortably, maybe 2 or 3-0

I like your logic! Will probably be one of those where everything points to an upset then Chelsea stroll it 5-0 with a Torres hat-trick. Ho-hum.
