Leeds have been draw specialists when facing big Premier League clubs at Elland Road this term and that trend can continue when Tottenham visit.
The Whites have already shared the spoils with Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and both Manchester clubs on home turf, so that pattern is hard to ignore.
Punters can get a tasty 11/4 for another stalemate here and that is our first Leeds vs Tottenham prediction.
A Look At Leeds United’s Betting Odds
Leeds surrendered a six-match unbeaten run in rather tame fashion when going down 2-0 at Brighton, with the midfield bite of Kalvin Phillips sorely missed.
“It’s just frustrating after getting a good few points in the last month to not come away with more,” Jack Harrison told the club website.
“It’s something we’re going to review starting next week and we’ll be looking to improve on all aspects.
“We’re not finished yet, we’re going to keep pushing right until the end and see how well we can do.”
With hopes of sneaking into Europe now gone, there is always a worry that Leeds will start looking towards their summer holidays.
However, they deserve the benefit of the doubt for now, having previously followed up a win at Manchester City by holding Liverpool and Manchester United to draws here.
Looking at the Leeds vs Tottenham odds, we like 19/4 for the scores to be level at half-time and full-time.
Last Leeds line-up: Meslier, Ayling, Koch, Llorente, Struijk, Alioski, Dallas, Harrison, Klich, Bamford, Roberts.
A Look At Tottenham Hotspur’s Betting Odds
Tottenham are longshots for a top-four finish but haven’t given up on that target, judged on a 4-0 drubbing of Sheffield United in London.
Gareth Bale hit a hat-trick before Son Heung-min finished off the scoring in fine style, while Harry Kane and Dele Alli also impressed up front.
Ryan Mason said: “The most important thing for me was the attitude, from minute one to 95, the desire to compete, to run, to fight, it was really, really good.
“And then you pair that up with the moments of brilliance we had, individually but also as a team. It was a real pleasing night.”
Spurs still have to play Wolves, Aston Villa and Leicester after this but interim boss Mason is not looking any further ahead than the trip to Yorkshire.
He added: “This week is a massive week for us, next weekend is a huge game as well, that is what we are looking to.
“We would be very silly as a group to look too far ahead because next week will be a tough match and we need to go there fully prepared.”
Spurs were able to bully the relegated Blades but have had to share the spoils on their last couple of road trips, drawing 2-2 at Newcastle and Everton.
We’re adding 16/5 for another score draw at Elland Road to our Leeds vs Tottenham betting tips.
Last Spurs line-up: Lloris, Reguilon, Alderweireld, Aurier, Hojbjerg, Dier, Lo Celso, Alli, Son, Bale, Kane.
