"Unfortunately, Estevao will be out for a little longer. Cucurella is progressing really well. He's not available for Sunday but hopefully we get him back soon. With Cucurella absent, Rosenior can choose between Jorrel Hato or Malo Gusto at left-back."
"Jamie Gittens will not be available once more as he suffered a tear in his hamstring when sustaining the injury that forced him off in the first half of the 3-2 win over West Ham last month. Chelsea will also remain without injured Levi Colwill for the Leeds match."
"The Blues' head coach will pick a strong line-up to face the Premier League leaders, and that will likely mean sticking with Moises Caicedo and Andrey Santos as the midfield pairing, with Enzo Fernandez in the No10 position and Cole Palmer at right wing."
Chelsea manages several key injuries ahead of their Premier League match against Leeds. Estevao remains sidelined for an extended period, while Cucurella is progressing but unavailable for the upcoming Sunday fixture. Jamie Gittens suffered a hamstring tear during the previous match against West Ham and remains out. Levi Colwill continues his absence due to injury. Romeo Lavia returns to contention after appearing on the bench in the recent Burnley match. With these absences, manager Rosenior can select between Jorrel Hato or Malo Gusto at left-back. Chelsea is expected to field a strong lineup featuring Moises Caicedo and Andrey Santos in midfield, Enzo Fernandez in the attacking midfield role, and Cole Palmer on the right wing.
