Leeds United take on Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday evening as the Whites look to book their place in the quarter-final of the FA Cup.

Ahead of the fixture, we take a look back through the years and pick out a starting XI from the players who have worn the shirts of both clubs.

GK: Neil Sullivan

He spent just one season with the Blues and played eight games in all competitions before signing for Leeds United in June 2004. Sullivan became the Whites’ starting ‘keeper for the next two seasons before joining Doncaster Rovers on loan, a deal that eventually became permanent. Overall, Sullivan made 110 appearances for Leeds.

DEF: Vinnie Jones
Jones signed for Second Division Leeds United from Wimbledon following the conclusion of the 1988/89 season. The defender became an integral part of the Leeds side who returned to the top flight as champions as he made 45 league appearances and netted on five occasions. He played 53 times in all competitions before signing for Sheffield United the following season. Chelsea came calling for Jones in 1991 and he went on to feature on 52 occasions for the Blues before returning to Wimbledon in 1992.

Overall, he spent six seasons at Elland Road and scored 5 goals in 208 games for the Whites.

DEF: Michael Duberry
The defender began his footballing career with Chelsea after coming through the ranks at the Blues’ academy. Duberry won the League Cup, Cup Winners’ Cup and the Super Cup with his boyhood club but faced fierce competition for a place in the starting lineup from Marcel Desailly and Frank Leboauf. He departed the club in 1999 for Leeds United but once again faced more completion for a place in the team from the likes of Jonathan Woodgate, Dom Matteo, Lucas Radebe and Rio Ferdinand. However, he played the full 90 minutes in a memorable 1-0 win over AC Milan at Elland Road. Duberry remained with the Whites until 2004 and played 75 times for the club, scoring four goals.

DEF: Danny Granville
Granville had brief spells with both Chelsea and Leeds back in the late 1990s. The Blues signed the defender from Cambridge United in 1997 but lost his place in the lineup when Graeme Le Saux returned to the club. He played 26 times before Leeds came calling in the summer of 1998. However, his time at Leeds was short-lived as he played just 14 times before joining Manchester City on loan and eventually signing a permanent deal for the Cityzens.

Leeds United snapped him up in 1997 and he went on to feature in 96 games and net six goals during his time at Elland Road before moving to Bradford City three years later.

MID: David Rocastle
The late David Rocastle spent the majority of his career with Arsenal and signed for Leeds United in 1992 for a fee of £2 million. The midfielder spent just over one season with the Whites before joining Manchester City in December 1993. Overall, he scored two goals and played 34 games for the club. In 1994, Rocastle signed for Chelsea but injuries hampered his playing time with the Blues as he played just once in his second season with the club. He made 40 appearances in all competitions before his time at the club came to an end.

A Chelsea youth academy graduate. Baker made his Blues debut in an FA Cup third round win over Derby County in January 2014, one of only two appearances he made for the club.

The midfielder played 14 games and scored twice for the Whites during his brief spell at Elland Road.

McKenzie was brought to Leeds United by Brian Clough in 1974 and established a striking partnership with Allan Clarke until McKenzie’s departure in 1976. During his time with Leeds, he attracted media attention for his off-field skills such as having the ability to jump over a Mini and throw a golf ball the length of a football pitch. He netted 30 goals in 82 games for Leeds in all competitions. Spells with Anderlecht and Everton soon followed and then Chelsea came calling for the striker’s signature in 1978.
