Truthful play to Leeds, they’ve actually shocked and impressed me up to now. There’s a good steadiness to their workforce as a result of they carry a menace and may dig in too.
Other than a heavy defeat at Arsenal, they’ve been aggressive in each recreation up to now and their good begin would have been even higher however for late objectives in opposition to Fulham and Bournemouth.
Even so, they’ve extra factors than I anticipated at this stage and Daniel Farke deserves a whole lot of credit score.
I feel there have been query marks over whether or not he may handle at this degree due to his Premier League report with Norwich however, as I’ve stated earlier than, he by no means actually had the squad there to have the ability to compete.
Tottenham have had a tough week, having to struggle again to rescue attracts in opposition to Wolves and Bodo/Glimt, and that is going to be one other tough recreation for them.
I can truly see it ending in one other draw for Spurs. A minimum of they performed within the Arctic Circle on Tuesday evening slightly than Wednesday however a lunchtime kick-off on Saturday continues to be removed from excellent, and this Champions League marketing campaign goes to stretch their squad.
Sutton’s prediction: 1-1
Rod’s prediction: I requested in my Leeds WhatsApp group about how a lot can I say we are going to win by earlier than I sound like a lunatic, and so they had been all like ‘6-0’ however that’s not going to occur! I need to say 4-1 however it is going to be so much nearer than that too.
I do suppose we are going to win, although, as a result of Spurs do not look that coherent as a workforce but. Additionally, Elland Street is a fortress and the house crowd will nearly get us over the road. 2-1
Rod’s favorite Leeds gamers: Gary Velocity was an actual hero of mine. I’m from a Welsh household so he was completely my favorite participant after I was rising up. Gary McAllister and Gordon Strachan had been implausible too, and a sure Frenchman who was additionally a part of our title-winning workforce that I can not actually speak about now.
Velocity was the one, although, proper up till Alan Smith got here by – however then he ended up going to the unsuitable place as properly!
AI’s prediction: 1-2
