Leeds United and Tottenham Hotspurs both play a do or die game

Leeds United will play Tottenham Hotspurs to stay in the Premier League for another season, as Tottenham aim for European spots

(Football news) On the final day of the 2022–23 Premier League season, Leeds United will face Tottenham Hotspur at Elland Road for their final opportunity to avoid relegation. In the previous 5 Premier League games, Leeds United have suffered three losses and two draws, dropping them directly into the middle of the relegation zone. They have only 31 points from their 37 games and are currently ranked 19th. While ranking 18th, Leicester City is just ahead of Leeds on goal differential.

With 33 points, Everton is the only other team that is in danger. Anything might happen on the final day, but by the time it is over, only one team from these possible three will have their place in the Premier League and the other 2 will get relegated.

Leeds United will need to rely on other outcomes as well like they will need the Foxes to lose as well as the Toffees to lose in order to stay in the league, and they cannot accept anything less than a victory. Tottenham Hotspur’s season, meanwhile, couldn’t have ended any sooner. They have been limited to competing for a position in the UEFA Europa Conference League for the upcoming season after a good start to the campaign.

Ryan Mason, the interim manager, would like to take over as the team’s permanent manager, but after losing three of their previous four Premier League games, he has only made a shaky case for himself. To surpass Aston Villa and enter the Conference League, Spurs must win and Aston Villa must lose. As a result, on Sunday, Leeds and Tottenham both have a stake in the game.

  • The last 10 Premier League encounters between Leeds and Tottenham have resulted in eight losses, one tie, and one victory for Leeds.

Predictions

With Leeds United or Tottenham Hotspur, you can never be sure what you’ll receive. Elland Road will be lively because Leeds have more reasons to play for. Tottenham has a lot of firepower, but they might just fall short of stopping a Leeds team that is on full gas.
