"Calvert-Lewin was on target in that win over Forest, while he also scored in Leeds' 3-1 victory against Chelsea earlier in the season. Jaka Bijol, Ao Tanaka and Calvert-Lewin were all on the scoresheet during that December meeting. The last player to score home and away for the club against the Blues in the same campaign was Mark Viduka in 2000-01."
"When I say direct, I mean it in a really positive way. We need to stand up to that and overcome that. You watch every game. It's very difficult for me because when I first watched that game, it was as a neutral, I didn't realise I'd be manager of Chelsea."
Chelsea prepare to face in-form Leeds United at Stamford Bridge after losing only once in their last four matches. Leeds beat Nottingham Forest 3-1 with Dominic Calvert-Lewin on the scoresheet and earlier recorded a 3-1 victory at Chelsea in December when Jaka Bijol, Ao Tanaka and Calvert-Lewin scored. The last player to score both home and away against Chelsea in a single season was Mark Viduka in 2000-01. Liam Rosenior has not won either of his two previous meetings with Leeds. Chelsea sit one point outside the top four and four points behind third-placed Aston Villa.
