- Tottenham Hotspur have won their last two games, both away from home.
- Leeds United have won three of their last five games, losing once and drawing once.
Leeds in good form as Spurs face midfield and managerial change
Tottenham Hotspur are on a two-game winning streak after victories away to Aston Villa and Wolves, but will they be able to hold on to their top scorer Richarlison? Perhaps more importantly, will they continue to earn points when they face a Leeds United side sitting above them?
Spurs currently occupy 17th place in the table with 37 points from 35 games, and Roberto De Zerbi has had to find a quick fix after his appointment in late March 2026. The Italian has instilled a positional, possession-based style with plenty of vertical passes and trigger-based, high-line pressing in the short time he’s had to implement his style.
Leeds United have had more time to make a change, with Daniel Farke coming in in July 2023 and bringing stability to the club. United sit 14th in the Premier League table with 43 points after 35 games, and they head into the final five games in decent form, winning three of their last five and drawing once. For more details, our Tottenham vs Leeds United preview highlights the tactical adjustments both teams have made this season.
Expect an exciting game between two of the most improved sides
The main selection for this game will be Tottenham to win and both teams to score, as the odds reflect Spurs’ slight edge coming into this game, but that Leeds will make life difficult for the hosts. In fact, this Tottenham vs Leeds United prediction is influenced by both teams’ attacking style and recent form. Over 2.5 goals sits at 1.81, and the main odds reflect the bookmakers’ belief that this will be a high-scoring game.
Tottenham have won each of the last two H2H meetings, but this will be a different Leeds side, and Farke’s 3-5-2 gives the Whites a number of different shapes to play with, depending on the game. Leeds’ wing-backs can provide width, and they can play compact or in transition to create space in the box, as they have done all season.
Spurs have won two, drawn one and lost two of their last five, while Leeds have lost one, won three and drawn one of their last five, so form lines are similar, but Tottenham’s home form (W2, D5, L10 from 17 in Premier League 2025/2026) is worse than Leeds’ away form (W2, D8, L7 from 17 in Premier League 2025/2026). For those interested in wagering, the best Tottenham vs Leeds United betting tips focus on both teams scoring and a possible upset.
Tottenham average 1.18 goals per game at home and Leeds average 1.12 on the road in Premier League 2025/2026, while Spurs are unbeaten in their last two, and Leeds have not managed a win in their last away game at Tottenham. A close game is expected, but with Tottenham looking better than Leeds, I’m backing Spurs to win at 1.91. Still, this Tottenham vs Leeds United prediction takes into account the unpredictability of both sides.
