Chelsea are likely to rotate their squad for this League Cup tie at Stamford Bridge, which should hand the young Brazilian a start and plenty of attacking freedom. Against a Leeds side that will also shuffle its pack, Estevao carries a genuine goal threat in front of his home crowd, so backing him to score anytime shapes up as a smart play at the Bridge.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Jayden Bogle to booked<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">9\/4<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Jayden Bogle has already been booked once in just three Premier League appearances this season, committing three fouls as an attacking full-back who can be caught out defensively. A League Cup tie against Chelsea&#8217;s quick, tricky forwards is exactly the sort of game where an overlapping defender gets dragged into fouls and late challenges. With Bogle set to face a stream of one-on-one duels down his flank at Stamford Bridge, the Leeds man looks a live candidate to be shown a yellow card.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button sq-ptips2-cta\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-soa-bst-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored nofollow noopener\">Back these tips with bet365 \u2192<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"sq-ptips2__foot wp-block-paragraph\">18+ only.
