Leeds United vs Tottenham: Prediction, kick off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results - preview today

Today’s early kick-off pitches Tottenham against Leeds at Elland Road, with both sides in big need of a win.

Few teams in Europe could claim to be as inconsistent as this duo and Antonio Conte appears to be feeling the emotion of his Spurs side, which followed up a win at leaders Manchester City with a sour defeat away to Burnley.

A top-four finish is still within Tottenham’s abilities but more performances like the one on Wednesday night will threaten their hopes of any European football next season. The team sits eighth going into the weekend.

For Leeds, a demoralising 6-0 hammering at Liverpool in midweek rounded off a miserable period.

Having earned a fantastic win against West Ham, the Whites have slumped back towards the drop zone with defeats to Newcastle, Manchester United, Everton and the aforementioned drubbing at Anfield.

Date, kick-off time and venue

Leeds United vs Tottenham is scheduled for a 12.30pm GMT kick-off today, Saturday, February 26, 2022.

Elland Road in Leeds will host the match.

Tottenham may be able to make hay on Leeds’ defensive dodginess, or the hosts could end up producing the death knell of Conte’s career in North London. We’re edging towards the former.
