Leeds signed off for the latest international break with a strong performance in a 1-1 draw against Leicester City at Elland Road, a game for which Patrick Bamford, Luke Ayling, Robin Koch, Junior Firpo, Jamie Shackleton and Joe Gelhardt were all out injured.
Marcelo Bielsa's Whites have since had two weeks off and this is how we can see Leeds starting out against Tottenham in Spurs boss Antonio Conte's first home league game in charge.
United are approaching the weekend sat 15th in the Premier League table, three points clear of the dropzone.
Spurs are five points better off in ninth.
1. GK - Illan Meslier
United's undisputed no 1 'keeper has now kept four clean sheets in a row for France's under-21s following his latest work during the international break. A cert to start in goal.
2. CB - Liam Cooper
United's captain is heading to the World Cup qualifying play-offs with Scotland and looks certain to start against Spurs, probably in a back three given that Tottenham will surely line up with both Harry Kane and Son Heung-min in their front line.
3. CB - Diego Llorente
Llorente has helped Spain qualify for the World Cup and the centre-back looks another certain starter against Spurs, the formation the only question mark. And which kit?
4. CB - Pascal Struijk
Luke Ayling is likely nearing a return from a knee injury but if it is three at the back then Pascal Struijk looks set to be the third member of the centre back axis.
5. CDM - Kalvin Phillips
The Yorkshire Pirlo has rapidly amassed 19 caps for England and is one of the first names on the team sheet in the holding midfield role, although it could be as part of a three-man centre midfield against Spurs.
6. CM - Adam Forshaw
Forshaw was terrific upon his first league start for over two years against Leicester and there must be every chance of the 30-year-old lining up again. If back fit, Shackleton is another option, as is starting Firpo at left back in a back four.
