The full picture

A data analysis platform has given Tottenham Hotspur a low chance of winning against Leeds at Elland Road, despite their current good form with three consecutive wins. Opta has given Leeds a 41.6 per cent chance of winning, while Tottenham have only a 31.6 per cent chance. A draw is the least likely result at 26.7 per cent. The analysis is based on the teams' current performance.

Tottenham have been in excellent form, winning against Coventry City, Chelsea, and Crystal Palace, and a win over Leeds could take them level on points with Liverpool temporarily. They are looking to go into the international break on a high note after being at the bottom of the table during the last month's break. Rodrigo Bentancur is available for selection after serving his suspension.

Leeds are unbeaten at home this season but have only won once, with draws against struggling sides like Crystal Palace and Manchester United. Tottenham's injury status is uncertain for Lucas Bergvall and Tosin Adarabioyo, who have a 50 per cent chance of being available. Savio's return is also uncertain, with conflicting reports on his availability.

How we label and update stories

Source context

Tottenham Hotspur have not been given a big chance of making it four wins from four when they travel to Elland Road to face Leeds on Saturday. The outlook on Spurs’ season has changed completely after three consecutive wins against Coventry City, Chelsea and Crystal Palace, with the Lilywhites moving from potential relegation contenders to Champions League hopefuls. In fact, a win over Leeds on Saturday could take Spurs level on points with Liverpool in 5th temporarily, with the Reds, Bournemouth and Brentford only playing after De Zerbi’s side.
