Leeds United's under-21s faced Chelsea's under-21s at York

Leeds United's under-21s take on Chelsea's under-21s in a Premier League Cup clash today in a 1pm kick-off.

Michael Skubala’s young Whites will be looking to bounce back from last weekend's surprise 7-1 league loss at home to Crystal Palace which brought an abrupt end to a good recent run.

Chelsea team and bench

Chelsea under-21s: Beach, Wilson, Gilchrist, Williams, Boniface, Rak-Sakyi, George, Tauriainen, Stutter, Castledine, Washington. Subs: Gee, Merrick, Akomeh, Duberry, Morgan.

Is the notable absentee from the Leeds squad but the Whites often change things up and give other players a chance in the cup ties.

Maybe a couple of hundred people here at York, possibly a bit more, on a cold Sunday afternoon.

On remembrance Sunday and the Last Post.
