Leeds vs Tottenham Prediction 8 May 2021

Leeds vs Tottenham Prediction 8 May 2021

Leeds United hosts Tottenham in round 35 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, May 8th at Elland Road (Leeds)

In the last round, Leeds lost to Brighton in an away match (2-0). Marcelo Bielsa's team was weakened by the absence of midfielder Calvin Phillips. Without him, the Peacocks have lost seven of their nine Premier League games, including both games against Brighton (0-1 at home). Phillips is one of the key players at Leeds United. The match against Manchester United in the previous round was indicative (0-0). Phillips was excellent at destroying opponents' attacks, making eight tackles — it was the highest indicator among the players of both teams. He also made three key passes, which was also the best result. The defeat in the game against Brighton interrupted Leeds' 6-match unbeaten run in the championship. In this segment, the Whites gained three victories and tied three times. Moreover, they played four matches against the opponents from the top seven: Chelsea (0-0), Manchester City (1-2), Liverpool (1-1), and Manchester United (0-0).

After the resignation of Jose Mourinho, Tottenham lost to Manchester City in the League Cup final (0-1), but the Spurs are doing well in the championship. They beat Southampton (2-1) and Sheffield United (4-0). There was an important aspect in the victory over the Blades. Previously, it seemed like Harry Kane was pulling Tottenham in every match. The last round pleased the fans with team football and a spectacular individual game from other footballers. Yes, the level of the opponent was not high, as Sheffield United is in the last place in the standings. But at the same time, the Blades are an extremely unyielding team. They conceded more than two goals in only eight of 34 matches.

The absence of Calvin Phillips will be a serious weakening for Leeds, but the team will still have a chance not to lose. The result will be influenced by the difference in the experience of the team coaches. The Peacocks are headed by experienced Marcelo Bielsa, who is very good at managing the team and rebuilding it during the match, if necessary. And Tottenham is managed by young Ryan Mason, who was appointed as interim coach following Mourinho's dismissal. He relies on the creativity of Tottenham players, but if Leeds can block key performers, it will be difficult for the young manager to adapt the squad. The statistics are in favor of Leeds. At home, the team has not yet lost to the clubs from the "big six" — it tied against Manchester City (1-1), Manchester United (0-0), Chelsea (0-0), Liverpool (1-1), and Arsenal (0-0).
