Leeds United will face off against Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday as they try to secure a positive result in the last game of this Premier League season. The Whites come into the match on the back of a 3-1 defeat in their last outing, which kept them in the relegation place.
However, they have one final opportunity to turn things around. Securing redemption will demand a combination of determination, fortune, and reliance on the results of Leicester City and Everton in their respective matches this weekend. Leeds’ chances of success hinge on securing a victory in their own game.
Sam Allardyce will probably set up the team in a 4-3-3 formation and is expected to make a few changes to the starting XI for this contest. Wilfried Gnonto and Brendon Aaronson are set to play from the start, as Patrick Bamford and Rodrigo remain doubtful.
4-3-3 Leeds United Predicted XI Vs Tottenham Hotspur
Defence
Joel Robles will play in goal for the Whites after shipping in a couple of goals in his last league outing. Maximilian Wober will play alongside Rasmus Kristensen at the centre of Leeds’ backline as they try to keep the Tottenham attackers quiet throughout the game.
Luke Ayling will try to give a good account of himself as the right-back, while Pascal Struijk gets to continue on the other side as the left-back. Both of them need to defend their lines well if Leeds are to pick up a good result in the Premier League this weekend.
Liam Cooper will offer cover for the defensive positions on the bench.
Midfield
Robin Koch, Adam Forshaw and Weston McKennie will anchor the midfield for Sam Allardyce’s side as they try to make life tough for the opposition at the centre of the park.
Marc Roca will be named on the bench as he waits for his chance to influence the game in the second half if Allardyce decides to call upon his services.
Attack
Jack Harrison will focus on putting his pace to good use on the left flank, while Brendon Aaronson hopes to impress as the right-sided wide player. Wilfried Gnonto could get a chance to spearhead Leeds’ attack up top. He has to find a way to cause problems for the Tottenham defenders during the 90 minutes.
Crysencio Summerville and Georginio Rutter will have to settle for a place on the bench and might come on to make an impact in the latter stages if the Whites are in need of a goal by then.
