Chelsea’s Cup Test Against Leeds | Chelsea F.C. News

Chelsea suffered their first loss under Xabi Alonso against Arsenal, but the performance hinted at real promise—with Cole Palmer and Morgan Rogers clicking beautifully, Rogers scoring early, and Maxence Lacroix stepping up defensively. Now, they face a tough Carabao Cup third-round clash against undefeated Leeds at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday, September 9th, at 3 PM ET. With key players sidelined—Moises Caicedo, Marco Asensio, and Jordan Henderson still recovering—Alonso may rotate his squad, testing depth while still fielding a strong lineup. It’s a tactical showdown with high stakes: a chance for Chelsea to bounce back and prove their mettle in the cup. Live on Paramount Plus.
