Leeds vs Tottenham head-to-head: Results in the last 5 meetings
Can Tottenham Hotspur achieve something they have not yet managed this season? Beat a team that does not begin with the letter C. So far, Spurs have managed victories over Charlton in the EFL Cup and then three successive Premier League wins over Coventry, Chelsea and then Crystal Palace.
As noted by Bill Edgar of the Times, the last time any top-flight club achieved something similar was Wolves in 1969; their first four victories that season came against Stoke, Southampton twice and Sheffield Wednesday. That is the important stat.
Well, concerningly, Leeds United does not begin with a C, nor even have a C in it, but the 2,960 Spurs supporters heading to West Yorkshire on Saturday should be encouraged by their team's recent record against the Whites.

Ahead of this weekend's clash, Tottenham are unbeaten in six meetings with Leeds, winning five in a row, prior to May's 1-1 draw in North London. In the dying seconds of that, Antonín Kinský pulled off a stunning save to deny Sean Longstaff, preserving a pivotal point in Spurs' battle against the drop.
Overall, Leeds have won only one of their last 13 Premier League meetings with Tottenham, this coming in lockdown, beating a Spurs side with a front four of Dele, Son Heung-min, Gareth Bale and Harry Kane, managed by Ryan Mason.
Since then, Spurs' visits to Elland Road have often been pivotal. In February 2022, Antonio Conte's team raced into a 3-0 lead inside half an hour, the score ending 4-0, this Spurs' biggest-ever win at Elland Road. This would prove to be Marcelo Bielsa's 170th and final match in charge, up there alongside Don Revie and Howard Wilkinson as the club's greatest manager of modern times.
A year later, on the final day of the 2022/23 campaign, Harry Kane was at the double at Tottenham ran out 4-1 winners at Elland Road. This result condemned Sam Allardyce's side to relegation, with Everton surviving instead.
Overall, since Leeds returned to the Premier League under Bielsa, their eight meetings with Tottenham have produced 31 goals, an average of just below four per match, with similar forecast come Saturday lunchtime.
In the 102 year history of this fixture, never before have Spurs won four successive outings at Elland Road. Meantime, following the aforementioned wins over Coventry, Chelsea and Palace, they are targeting four consecutive league wins for the first time since October 2023 under Ange Postecoglou. Well, Robert De Zerbi's side certainly have to be favourites to achieve this.
