Tottenham Hotspur host Leeds United on Monday in a massive game for the hosts in their scrap against relegation.
WATCH — Tottenham Hotspur v Leeds
Roberto De Zerbi has led Spurs to back-to-back Premier League wins for the first time since August to reignite their hopes of staying in the Premier League. They won 2-1 at a rotated Aston Villa last weekend to give themselves huge belief they can stay in the top-flight as they go head-to-head with London rivals West Ham to stay out of the bottom three in the final weeks of the season. Can Spurs make the most of this big opportunity?
Leeds sit six points above Spurs heading into this game and Daniel Farke’s side are six games unbeaten in the league and have won three of their last four games. After West Ham’s loss to Arsenal on Sunday, Leeds are safe from relegation. Leeds beat Burnley 3-1 last time out and will be aiming to hit Spurs on the counter to win this game.

As you may have heard, Spurs have a huge number of injuries with Cristian Romero, Wilson Odobert, Xavi Simons, Mohammed Kudus, Dejan Kulusevski, Guglielmo Vicario, Dominic Solanke and Ben Davies all ruled out. Rodrigo Bentancur and Richarlison are both fit, while James Maddison is fit to play a part after being on the bench in the last few games. De Zerbi has Spurs set up well in a 4-2-3-1 formation and Conor Gallagher breaking forward from central midfield suits him and Spurs perfectly.
