Watch Online: Tottenham - Leeds (Premier League) 21.11.2021 16:30 - Sunday
Tottenham meet Leeds in a 12th round match in the Premier League. The game of the "Ball" in the return of the Italian in English football was not very impressive and the zero draw with Everton was a natural result. Tottenham is still closer to the middle of the standings than to the top and with an asset of 16 points occupies the 9th position. In the coming weeks, however, the Spurs will compete with insurmountable rivals and with a good series will approach the Top 4.
Before the break for national teams, Leeds reminded of their best days and ended in a draw 1: 1 with Leicester. This was the third consecutive game in which the "Whites" do not allow a loss, which happens to them for the first time since the beginning of the season. Leeds may even regret not taking the three points after Jack Harrison and Rodrigo squandered good positions in the second half. With an asset of just 11 points, the Whites continue to be dangerously close to the relegation zone, with a lead of just three ahead of Burnley.
I am convinced that during the break for national teams, Antonio Conte worked a lot with the players he had at his disposal. Against Vitesse in a match of the League of Conferences, it is clear that the Spurs have to clear many mistakes in defense. I expect to see a much better face than Tottenham on Sunday than Everton's visit.
Judging by the performance of Leeds so far this season, it will be a surprise if the Spurs do not grab the three points. Harry Kane has shown that he is in great shape with his game for the England national team and I expect to create a lot of headaches for the hesitant defense of the guests.
Leeds' points asset was largely won in matches against outsiders in the standings. In four games against the Top 10, the Whites suffered three losses to West Ham, Liverpool and Manchester United, and ended in a draw 1: 1 with only Wolverhampton. Even when he is better on the field, Leeds finds it difficult to materialize his superiority and the lack of a prominent goal scorer begins to weigh more and more.
