The key TV and streaming details as Leeds United prepare to visit Chelsea

Leeds United are set to head to the capital for a Carabao Cup meeting with Chelsea.

The old rivals last did battle in April, when they squared off under the Wembley arch in the semi-final of the FA Cup.

Chelsea emerged as 1-0 winners but went on to lose to Manchester City by the same scoreline in the final.

Leeds will be out for revenge and while Daniel Farke has insisted they are respectful of Chelsea’s qualities, the Whites are not planning to travel with fear.

He said: “When I judge their offence, how they play more or less with [Joao] Pedro, with [Cole] Palmer, with [Morgan] Rogers, you would say there are not many teams in Europe who have such quality and also look at their options on the bench. They have all the chances to be super-successful during the season.

“But it's always up to the team to prove it with consistency over a long-term period. They definitely have a top manager and top players to play a really good season but we're looking at us and we also want to be competitive.

“We travel, of course, respectful but not in fear. We want to go through to the next round if possible.”

Here are the key TV and streaming details as Leeds and Chelsea prepare to lock horns.
