Tottenham Hotspur 2 Leeds United 1 - Reaction and recap
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 return to action against Spurs in boss Antonio Conte's first home league game in charge.
United are approaching the contest sat fourth-bottom, two points clear of the dropzone, but a win would take Leeds at least 14th.
