Leeds host Tottenham at Elland Road on Saturday, November 7 (7:30 AM ET / 6:30 AM CT / 4:30 AM PT).
Leeds will be without injured Mateo Joseph, while thigh-issue doubt Joe Rodon and groin-issue doubt Noah Okafor are touch-and-go for Elland Road. Dominic Calvert-Lewin has carried the goal threat with four goals from sixteen shots, nine of them on target, and Anton Stach’s ten created chances make him Leeds’s creative pivot alongside Jayden Bogle. Tottenham’s absentee list is longer: knee-injury outs Xavi Simons and Wilson Odobert, calf/shin issue Oluwatosin Adarabioyo, ankle/foot absence Mykhailo Mudryk and the unavailable Savio Moreira de Oliveira all miss out, with suspended Rodrigo Bentancur also sidelined and knee-doubt Lucas Bergvall touch-and-go. Jan Paul van Hecke, who has scored twice this season, along with Mathys Tel and Omar Marmoush, should carry Tottenham’s threat going forward.
Just a single point separates these two sides, and the underlying numbers point to a tense, low-event contest rather than an open game. Leeds have drawn five of their nine league matches, a pattern that suggests a team set up to protect a result rather than chase one, while Tottenham’s goal difference of zero across the same number of games reflects a side yet to find consistent control at either end. At Elland Road, where moments of quality tend to settle tight matches, Leeds’ aerial presence through Tarik Muharemović and Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s finishing could be enough to break the deadlock without the game ever opening up.

Leeds vs Tottenham Prediction
This looks set to be tight and low on incident rather than an exchange of blows. Leeds, on eleven points from nine games with a goal difference of plus one, have the sturdier platform to defend a narrow lead, while Tottenham’s goal difference of zero across the same span hints at a side yet to find a settled rhythm in either box. Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s four goals this season give Leeds the sharper edge up front, and with both defences well organized, a single moment of quality should be enough to separate the sides. Leeds 1-0 Tottenham.
