Leeds United are preparing for a very important game against Tottenham Hotspur on Monday night. The game could mean a lot for both teams considering their current situations in the league.
Leeds hit 43 points and sit in 14th place, they are not mathematically safe yet, but whatever happens this weekend could change that. Spurs on the other hand go into Monday night needing something from the game as they are just one point above the relegation zone. Ahead of the game, Roberto De Zerbi has praised the Whites for how they are playing this season, calling them ‘one of the best teams’ in recent weeks.
Leeds United dealt huge injury blow ahead of Spurs clash
Daniel Farke’s side are on a six-game unbeaten run in the league, and are hoping to extend that in their final three games of the season. Roberto De Zerbi’s side have won back-to-back games and will hope to add three more points at home.
Ahead of the game on Monday night, Leeds assistant boss Edmund Riemer has given an injury update on some first team players. He has revealed that Gabriel Gudmundsson is out, and that Pascal Struijk is currently a doubt for the game. Noah Okafor has also picked up a calf injury and could miss the next two games.
”Gabi will be out for this week. Will assess him on a daily basis. Another one with Noah – picked up a calf strain. Will miss the next two games. Hope he will be available for final day. Got it after FA Cup game but in Burnley in pulled the right one. Pascal did not train today with a hip [problem], he got a hit.”
