Team idea
As impressive as the visitors' defense has been this season, Chelsea will be hoping to pressure them into making the kind of mistakes that have regularly led to attempts on Illan Meslier's goal in the Championship. Leeds, meanwhile, play a possession-based game, but are bold and quick in attack. They have the potential to break quickly through wingers Wilfried Gnonto, Daniel James and the agile menace Crysencio Summerville

Speak, Daniel Farke!
"I'm a big believer and I've mentioned it several times. The cup competitions and especially the FA Cup are probably the competition with the longest history in the whole of Western Europe. I think it's always important for us that it has more or less the same value and priority as the league.
We want to represent our club in the best possible way and also in the FA Cup. Obviously, when you're in the critical period for promotion back to the Premier League, you also have to keep that in mind.
You have to make sure that in your decision-making you don't do anything stupid and we won't risk any players, especially as we're entering a very hectic period. But even so, we know that we'll once again have an incredible traveling support. It's a high-profile game and everyone is focused on this game and we want to perform in the best possible way, and also get the best possible result."
Speak, Mauricio Pochettino!
"At the moment, Nkunku could be away from home for three or four weeks. We hope no longer. We found out after [the final that he had suffered an injury]. It's difficult for him. When he arrived in pre-season, he was flying on the pitch and training in America. Then he suffered a knee injury and now it's been almost eight months. Even when he was ready to get involved again, he couldn't be the same as before. That's the risk.
When you lose a final it's not easy to bounce back, but I'm happy because I think the players are really focused and moving forward. If you ask the players today, they all want to get involved in the game. They are, of course, disappointed because we didn't win the Carabao Cup, but we need to move on to tomorrow. I'm happy because I think they've reacted well and are doing well.
We need to keep our spirits up, keep going and be ready for tomorrow. It's another competition, the FA Cup, and we want to go all the way. So we need to be ready because we face a very good opponent, Leeds, who have won their last nine [Championship] games. They are in a good moment and it will be difficult. That's why we need to have confidence and energy.
We're aware of the history and the players are aware. I think Leeds will have 5,000 fans tomorrow and it will be a good atmosphere. I understand the disappointment of our fans, but we'll need their help as always. I think it's important to create a very good atmosphere because Leeds will be pushing with all their fans. I know it's going to be a tough game.
The players want to be involved and want to show that we're in a form that will be good for the team and the club. We're looking forward to the next competition on Wednesday and then, of course, the Premier League, trying to win as many games as possible."
