Following their defeat last weekend, Tuchel will not give up and he will put his team back in front to compete with the big teams. We expect the blues to win the game.
Despite both teams’ offensive abilities this season, there are many defensive errors and problems from both sides as we expect an open game with a least 3 goals.

Chelsea:
Tuchel is considered one of the best managers in the world and as a tactician, he has proved himself by winning the Champions League and taking top 4 positions with Chelsea multiple times. However, Tuchel and the blues are missing a position, striker. All the build-ups, possession, and attacking power are for nothing if there is no player to finish the attempts and score goals. Chelsea had more than 10 shots against Leeds but they could not score a single goal. Tuchel is capable with this team to win the league however adjustments are needed, a striker should be bought and defensive problems should be solved.

Leicester City:
On the other hand, Brenden Rodgers says he will do his job at its best with all the resources he has and without further transfers, Leicester City is eager to finish the Premier League season in the top 10 taking their focus to grabbing a European ticket. This season, Leicester City failed to register a single win in their first 3 games against Brentford, Arsenal, and Southhampton. Leicester is scoring and leading the score at first; however, they are failing to stay consistent for 90 minutes.
