Leeds United will look to end a run of five games without a win when they welcome Tottenham Hotspur to Elland Road on Saturday. The Whites lost 2-0 at Bournemouth last time out and have now failed to score in three of those winless matches - albeit a string of draws have kept them ticking along.
Attacking injuries have been a factor in that lack of goals with Noah Okafor, Anton Stach and Dominic Calvert-Lewin all managing issues. Centre-back Joe Rodon has also been out for almost 10 weeks due to a hamstring strain suffered against Brentford back in August.

Below, the YEP rounds up the latest injury and team news from both sides ahead of Saturday’s lunchtime clash.
