Tottenham Hotspur will be looking to bolster their Premier League safety hopes when they host Leeds United on Monday at 8pm.
Spurs moved out of the relegation zone last weekend, but are only one point above 18th-placed West Ham United.
Tottenham predicted lineup vs Leeds
Tottenham (4-2-3-1): Kinsky; Porro, Danso, Van de Ven, Udogie; Bentancur, Palhinha; Kolo Muani, Gallagher, Tel; Richarlison.
The tide has change slightly at Tottenham since Roberto De Zerbi took charge. They have taken seven points from their past 12 games, including back-to-back victories going into this fixture.
And Tottenham are now looking to win three consecutive Premier League matches for the first time since February 2025. They have won eight of their last nine league games against Leeds, including the past five in a row.

Tottenham team news vs Leeds
De Zerbi isn’t getting any help in the relegation battle when it comes to injuries. Tottenham are plagued with problems, including a few key players who won’t play again this season.
Cristian Romero, Dejan Kulusevski, Mohammed Kudus, Xavi Simons and Wilson Odobert are all out for the remainder of the campaign. Simons isn’t expected back until 2027, having recently undergone surgery on an ACL injury.
Guglielmo Vicario is also an injury absentee, though he could return before the end of the campaign. Antonin Kinsky will continue in goal in his stead. Tottenham may remain unchanged from the team that started the win over Aston Villa last weekend.

Rodrigo Bentacur and Richarlison were slight doubts ahead of this match, with both having to come off injured last weekend. But both have been declared fit, and are likely to start.
Bentancur should be joined at the base of Tottenham’s midfield by Joao Palhinha, a duo that has brought some security to their defence. Richarlison is likely to lead the line, with Dominic Solanke still out injured.
Conor Gallagher, Mathys Tel and Randal Kolo Muani will make up the rest of the attack. Tottenham do have the likes of Yves Bissouma, Pape Matar Sarr, Lucas Bergvall and even James Maddison to call upon in midfield.
Kevin Danso is likely to continue as Micky van de Ven’s partner, with Pedro Porro and Destiny Udogie flanking them.
Will Tottenham stay up?
What a difference two weeks make. Tottenham went into their recent game against Wolverhampton Wanderers with a 59.06% chance of relegation per Opta’s season projections.
Now, they are at 19.84% to go down. De Zerbi’s men know that all they have to do is match West Ham’s results for their final three matches to stay up. It’s the favourable position to be in.
Tottenham have hit form at the right time, and their fixture list is looking favourable. First up it’s Leeds, who they generally play well against. Even if the Whites are unbeaten in their past six Premier League games.
Spurs then face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. While that is never an easy game, Tottenham will have had a free weekend with Chelsea contesting the FA Cup final. Chelsea are also winless in seven in the league, with one draw and six defeats. If ever there’s a time to pick up a second-ever Premier League win at Stamford Bridge, it’s now.
Tottenham do end the season with a tricky home game against Everton. But safety could be secured by then. West Ham have a tough run-in, facing Arsenal, Newcastle United and then Leeds in their final three matches.
