Chelsea vs Leeds United: FA Cup Live Stream, Form Guide, Head to Head, Schedule, Fixture and Probable Lineups

Recovering from their disappointing EFL Cup final loss, a dejected Chelsea looks to find momentum in the FA Cup as they host Leeds United at Stamford Bridge for a fifth-round clash on Thursday. Despite Chelsea’s 1-0 defeat to Liverpool in the Wembley final on Sunday, Leeds United celebrated a convincing 3-1 victory over Championship leaders Leicester City. Jurgen Klopp’s injury-ridden Liverpool team faced a crisis, allowing Chelsea an opportunity to end their trophy drought. However, Chelsea’s poor performance, even against a makeshift Liverpool side, led to a lack of cutting edge, and they eventually succumbed to a last-minute goal by Virgil van Dijk.

Despite their recent home struggles with two consecutive winless games after seven straight victories, Chelsea aims to regain momentum against Leeds at Stamford Bridge. Leeds, on the other hand, comes into the match on a winning streak, securing their sixth consecutive victory against Leicester City in the Championship. Their flawless record in 2024 includes nine wins from nine games since the beginning of the year.

Leeds reached the fifth round with a 4-1 extra-time victory over Plymouth Argyle after initially drawing in the fourth-round first game. However, they have not progressed further in the FA Cup since the 2002-03 season when they reached the quarter-finals. Leeds’ most recent win over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge dates back to December 1999, and since then, Chelsea has claimed six consecutive victories over their Championship counterparts on their home turf in West London.

Chelsea probable starting lineup: Sanchez, Gusto, Disasi, Chalobah, Colwill, Gallagher, Fernandez, Madueke, Palmer, Mudryk, Sterling

Leeds United probable starting lineup: Meslier, Roberts, Ampadu, Cooper, Firpo, Gruev, Kamara, Gnonto, Gray, Anthony, Piroe
