Chelsea welcome top scorer Joao Pedro back from a minor calf injury, but Cole Palmer is only fit enough for a place on the bench.

The pair missed the 3-0 defeat at Brighton, which proved to be Liam Rosenior’s final game in charge as head coach.

Now led by interim boss Calum McFarlane, they switch back to a back four, with Alejandro Garnacho and Tosin Adarabioyo coming into the side.

Chelsea XI: Sanchez, Gusto, Adarabioyo, Chalobah, Cucurella, Caicedo, Lavia, Neto, Fernandez, Garnacho, Joao Pedro.

Subs: Sharman-Lowe, Acheampong, Fofana, Hato, Essugo, Andrey Santos, Palmer, Derry, Delap

Leeds’ cup-goalkeeper Lucas Perri retains his place over Karl Darlow, who remains no1 in the Premier League.

They otherwise have the same XI which drew with Bournemouth on Wednesday.

The Whites are unbeaten in seven in all competitions.

Leeds XI: Perri, Justin, Bijol, Struijk, Bogle, Ampadu, Tanaka, Gudmundsson, Aaronson, Okafor, Calvert-Lewin

Subs: Darlow, Roson, Bornauw, Longstaff, Stach, James, Gnonto, Piroe, Nmecha
