Leeds United vs Tottenham Hotspur predictions
After both being held to disappointing draws in the Premier League last weekend, Leeds and Spurs will both seek to return to winning ways when they meet at Elland Road on Premier League Matchday 7.
Starting with Leeds, and they were on the verge of completing their second victory of the season at home, but conceded a late equaliser to Bournemouth.
Daniel Farke’s team went behind to Antoine Semenyo’s fourth Premier League goal of the season. They fought back well, with goals from Joe Rodon and Sean Longstaff putting the hosts 2-1 up.
With the final whistle in sight, Bournemouth substitute Eli Junior Kroupi broke the hearts of the home side with an equaliser three minutes into stoppage time.
Leeds shouldn’t be too disheartened. They are still unbeaten at home in the Premier League after three matches, and along with the three points they picked up on the road at Wolves, they have had a solid start to life back in the top flight.
Daniel Farke’s team will start the matchday 12th in the table with eight points from their six matches. Most fans of the club would have taken that return at this stage had they been offered it at the beginning of the season.
Tottenham Hotspur also suffered a disappointing draw on Matchday 6 last Saturday. Possibly with one eye on their midweek Champions League outing, Spurs could only manage a disappointing 1-1 draw at home to Wolves.
In what was expected to be a routine three points for the hosts, Thomas Frank’s team were eventually lucky to leave with anything. They needed a 94th-minute equaliser from João Palhinha to salvage a draw late on.
The hard earned point left Spurs sitting fourth in the table on 11 points from their six matches. It was the second time they had dropped points at home, having already lost 1-0 to Bournemouth on Matchday 3.
However, away from home Spurs are unbeaten with seven points from their three matches.
The Londoners had a shaky night in Europe on Tuesday. They had to fight back from two goals down to salvage a 2-2 draw away to Bodø/Glimt on Matchday 2 of the Champions League.
It was hardly ideal preparation, but the positives are that Spurs fought back well and picked up another result away from home.
Leeds United vs Tottenham Hotspur betting tips
The head-to-head strongly favours Spurs. The Londoners have won their last four against the Yorkshire outfit. We believe Daniel Farke’s team will struggle to snap that streak when they meet on Saturday. Our match betting tips follow:
Spurs to remain unbeaten on the road
Including their 2-2 draw in the Champions League, Tottenham have not been beaten in four road trips this season. Throw in the Super Cup final draw with PSG, and they are unbeaten in five.
Furthermore, Thomas Frank’s team have scored a minimum of two goals in all five of their matches away from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this season – a statistic that doesn’t bode well for Daniel Farke’s team.
However, giving hope to Leeds, Spurs have only won two of those five matches. And further adding to the hosts chances of getting a result, they are unbeaten at Elland Road in their three Premier League fixtures this season.
But the bottom line is that facing Spurs will be a significant step up in class for Leeds. They’ve already had a taste of how brutal top flight football can be when they lost 5-0 away at Arsenal.
Yes, they will have the home crowd spurring them on. But we can only see Leeds getting a draw at best, even with their proverbial 12th man.
We’re going for Spurs to win or draw and over 1.5 goals. This covers a 2-0 win for Spurs, and also the draw if Leeds do manage to salvage a point with a 1-1 draw.
Bet on Spurs to win or draw and over 1.5 goals at 17/20 with Bet442
Both teams to find the net
Leeds have scored in two of their home matches this season and Spurs have found the net in all of their away fixtures.
We can see this finishing 1-1 or 2-1 to Spurs. There was a temptation to go with over 2.5 goals and both teams to score, but given Leeds are unbeaten at home, we are playing safe and just going with both teams to score.
There were four goals with both teams scoring last weekend when Daniel Farke’s team drew 2-2 with Bournemouth. But we also have to note that in the previous two matches at Elland Road, there was only one goal scored – and that was from the penalty spot.
Back both teams to score at 7/10 with bet365
Kudus to continue his hot streak
Following his big money move from West Ham in the summer, Mohammed Kudus has quickly established himself as one of the first names on the Tottenham teamsheet.
The former Hammer has four assists based on Opta statistics and his all round stats for Spurs are very impressive and show why he is already so important to the North Londoners.
Based on Tottenham’s results under Thomas Frank, they are a team well set up to play away from home. This brings Kudus into the reckoning when we are looking for a player to score or assist.
As well as his assists, Kudus is a more than capable goalscorer as well. He managed 13 goals in 65 Premier League appearances for West Ham, averaging a goal every five matches – so he is due one for his new club.
Backing him to score or assist gives us two chances of winning.
Back Mohammed Kudus to score or assist at 12/7 with 247Bet
