The Whites suffered their third successive Premier League defeat at Anfield on Wednesday as a rampant Liverpool side put six goals into the back of Illan Meslier's net.
With their goals against tally now at 56, Leeds have the worst defensive record in the Premier League and, with relegation rivals getting the kinds of results Marcelo Bielsa craves over the course of the last week, the Whites' cushion to the drop zone now stands at just three points.
On Saturday at Elland Road, Leeds will look to address both of these issues against a Tottenham Hotspur side who, with four losses in their last five league outings, are not at their best at the moment either.
Bielsa revealed on Friday that Robin Koch and Diego Llorente are both back in contention after the pair missed out on the Whites' midweek trip to Merseyside.
Patrick Bamford, Kalvin Phillips, and Liam Cooper all have some way yet to go.
Taking all of that into account, we’ve had a closer look at how United could line up against Spurs.
Check out our starting XI below...
7. CM - Adam Forshaw
Had his work cut out against Liverpool on Wednesday. Forshaw's miraculous return season will continue tomorrow when he's likely to take up the number 8 role. Photo: Lindsey Parnaby
8. LW - Jack Harrison
Harrison was singled out by Bielsa as being one of the players who made the most efforts against Liverpool. Expected to keep his place on the left flank. Photo: George Wood
9. RW - Raphinha
Not at his best against Liverpool but Bielsa put this down to the isolation of the attackers and backed the Brazilian's defensive contribution. Should keep his starting place. Photo: Paul Ellis
10. SS - Rodrigo
Rodrigo was missing the calmness on the ball that was so needed by Leeds on Wednesday night, but he is likely to keep his place for the Spurs clash. Photo: George Wood
11. ST - Dan James
James has settled into his role as a number 9 nicely in recent weeks. With Bielsa's best estimate for Bamford's return being 'before the end of the season', James might need to make himself at home leading the line. Photo: Mike Hewitt
