- 0' That's the starting whistle at Elland Road. Ninety minutes of football awaits between Leeds United FC and Chelsea FC.
- 4' Mason Mount has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 4 minutes.
- 9' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Robin Koch suffering a number of foals already.
- 14' Chelsea FC has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
- 19' The 37-year-old Azpilicueta has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 24' The referee does not hesitate — a Red card for Daniel James on 24 minutes.
- 29' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Leeds United FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 30' Another substitution for Chelsea FC to replace Mateo Kovacic by Ruben Loftus-Cheek on 30 minute.
- 35' It’s high time Thomas Tuchel made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.

- 59' Mateusz Klich gets the nod from Leeds United FC. He replaces Lewis Bate and will look to change the dynamic.
- 64' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Marcos Alonso made 412 appearances and scored 26 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 69' Leeds United FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Chelsea FC backline.
