Leeds preview: Slight dip

Leeds United come into this one on the back of a 2-0 defeat to in-form AFC Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium last weekend due to goals in either half scored by Evanilson and Amine Adli.

Leeds’ loss to The Cherries means they are now winless in five matches either side of the extended international break since they hammered Newcastle United by four goals to one in mid-September.

Tottenham preview: In-form Spurs

After a slow start to the season, Tottenham Hotspur have begun to find some form and that continued with a comfortable 2-0 defeat of Crystal Palace in their most recent outing with goals scored by Archie Gray and Jan Paul van Hecke.

That has made it three wins on the bounce for Spurs after they had beaten both Coventry City and Chelsea with Roberto De Zerbi’s side beginning to propel themselves up the Premier League table.

Leeds team news: Fresh doubts

Leeds are dealing with some fresh doubts for this one as key men James Justin and Gabriel Gudmundsson sustained knocks against Bournemouth and are now potentially unavailable.

Joe Rodon is working his way back to full fitness for this one with Noah Okafor also looking to overcome an adductor injury ahead of the visit of Spurs.

Further details will appear here following pre-match press conferences…

Predicted XI (3-5-1-1): Trafford; Bijol, Elvedi, Muharemovic; Bogle, Tanaka, Ampadu, Stach, Bard; Aaronson; Calvert-Lewin

Unavailable: Joseph (Injured)

Questionable: Rodon (Fitness), Justin (Injured), Gudmundsson (Injured), Okafor (Injured)

Tottenham team news: Bentancur returns

De Zerbi has found a partnership that works with Mateus Fernandes and Sandro Tonali. They should keep their places as Rodrigo Bentancur returns from suspension.

It wouldn’t be a surprise to see Omar Marmoush push back up-front ahead of Dominic Solanke with the now fully fit James Maddison coming back into the attacking midfield position. 

Further details will appear here following pre-match press conferences…

Predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Kinsky; Gray, Van Hecke, Van de Ven, Robertson; Fernandes, Tonali; Kudus, Maddison, Tel; Marmoush

Unavailable: Simons (Injured), Odobert (Injured), Savio (Injured), Mudryk (Injured)

Questionable: Adarabioyo (Fitness), Bergvall (Fitness)

Leeds vs Tottenham prediction

Daniel Farke has made Leeds tougher to beat in the last year or so but the Yorkshire giants have become a little too stilted in the final third. They will want to get after their opposition with the raucous home atmosphere of Elland Road. Spurs themselves have found some form going forward and that should contribute to a potentially fun watch for the neutral here.
