Our fans look ahead to Leeds United v Tottenham

Spurs are certainly not invincible and will not relish the hotbed atmosphere

Confidence is high around Elland Road. The team are playing well and competing at Premier League level and the supporter base recognise this. Everyone is united.
Spurs are certainly not invincible and will not relish the hotbed atmosphere which Elland Road can generate; but they possess several "difference makers" and will be a tough nut to crack.
Leeds have modified their style of play to suit the league and the fanbase now understand why players with specific attributes were acquired.
Whilst Daniel Farke's team selection does not satisfy all supporters, current performances and results support his decisions on the whole.
The team had been virtually picking itself, but the concession of two set-piece goals last time out may raise a question regarding the inclusion of Jaka Bijol for the extra height he possesses.
If included, Pascal Struijk would likely lose out, which would be harsh but in a game of small margins it could be a valid decision.
Noah Okafor is improving game by game and Dominic Calvert-Lewin is leading the line well, despite being a little wasteful with chances given - although the chances are being created.
Prediction: Leeds United 1 Tottenham Hotspur 1.
Every week feels like a test in this league, but this is another than Leeds should relish

Following the late draw with Bournemouth last week, Leeds United will be looking to feel more positive by the close of play this Saturday.
Spurs are, on paper at least, a tougher opponent than the team from the south coast.
