Saturday’s Premier League action kicks off with a fascinating match between two sides with a unquenchable thirst for self destruction. Leeds’ gung ho approach worked last season but the goals have dried up and their defence would make a sieve blush with how leaky it is.
WELCOME TO PADDY POWER NEWS!
We all know about the ongoing soap opera that is Spurs and they followed up a 3-2 away win at Manchester City with a 1-0 loss to Burnley. Antonio Conte’s made a ‘please sack me plea’ but remains in place for Saturday’s early kick off in the top flight. There’s much to ponder, so to help you navigate this confusing clash, here’s Thommo’s Leeds v Tottenham tips.
Saturday 12.30pm: Leeds v Tottenham
TV: BT Sport 1 and BT Sport Ultimate
I can see goals in this but not a bagful, although Spurs got three against Manchester City last weekend. Goodness knows what happened in midweek against Burnley, getting beat 1-0.
What was it Antonio Conte was saying? ‘It’s not right for Spurs to lose four out of five league games.’ I thought that was an incredible interview he gave after that game.
Leeds played Liverpool in the week and were absolutely battered 6-0. They’ve not got a really striker but they had a go and this Leeds side, particularly with them being at home and roared on by their crowd, I can see scoring.

They’ve won just two of their last 11 Premier League games, they’ve conceded 16 in their last four matches. It’s hard to see Leeds getting out of this at the moment.
Marcelo Bielsa is stuck in this mind frame that he’s got all this man-for-man marking. I am going for Spurs to Win and Both Teams to Score. If you want a goal scorer, I’m not going to go for Harry Kane.
I’m going to go for Son Heung-min to Score Anytime. It’s Son, Kane, Son, Kane… I’m going to go for Son Heung-min.
