The club from Elland Road returned from the Championship after a couple of years and, with 47 points, finished 14th in the previous Premier League campaign. They have now been eliminated from the League Cup by their second opponent, Chelsea, losing 3-6, but in the league they suffered just one defeat at the start—and that came against the champions, Arsenal. They only lost again in the most recent round, going down 0-2 to Bournemouth.
The London giants somehow managed to perform even worse in 2025/2026 than they had the previous season in the Premier League: only at the last moment did they win the battle with West Ham for 17th place. This season, they had not won a league match until mid-October and were also eliminated from the League Cup by their second opponent, Liverpool. However, they then defeated Coventry and Chelsea in succession. They also beat Crystal Palace, 2-0.
The former newcomers score one goal per game while conceding slightly fewer, at 0.89. The capital club’s attack has started to click, but the figures are still level for now: 1.11 goals scored and 1.11 conceded per match.
Previous matches: Leeds United vs Tottenham Hotspur
The Londoners won five consecutive meetings, but the match in May ended in a draw.
