Tottenham vs Leedspreview
Tottenham's decision to bring in Roberto De Zerbi has started to pay off and it is no coincidence that his first two wins came away from home.
Spurs capitalised on a couple of decent fixtures, beating bottom club Wolves 1-0 at Molineux before a 2-1 victory at Aston Villa, who were distracted by their Europa League semi-final tie against Nottingham Forest.
Those results should improve the atmosphere at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, where Spurs are odds-on to beat resurgent Leeds.
West Ham's 1-0 defeat to Arsenal was a welcome outcome for both clubs, easing the pressure on Tottenham and confirming that Leeds are safe from relegation.
But home advantage has been virtually non-existent for Tottenham this term so backing over 2.5 goals and both teams to score is a more tempting bet.
Thomas Frank's Spurs side beat Burnley 3-0 in their opening fixture in north London but Tottenham have won only one of their 16 subsequent Premier League games on their own patch.
A stirring second-half comeback in February's 2-2 draw with Manchester City was followed by four straight home defeats to Newcastle (2-1), Arsenal (4-1), Crystal Palace (3-1) and Nottingham Forest (3-0).
The only win of Igor Tudor's brief reign was a 3-2 Champions League last-16 second-leg victory at home to Atletico Madrid, who went through 7-5 on aggregate.
And De Zerbi's home debut produced another high-scoring game as Georginio Rutter's injury-time equaliser earned Brighton a 2-2 draw.
The new manager has found a better balance in midfield, with Joao Palhinha, Rodrigo Bentancur and Conor Gallagher impressing at Villa Park.
But Leeds won 2-1 at Manchester United and drew 2-2 at Bournemouth in their last two away fixtures in the league and should contribute to a lively contest.
Daniel Farke's men have eased clear of the relegation zone thanks to home wins over Championship-bound Wolves (3-0) and Burnley (3-1).
They were unfortunate to lose 2-1 to Spurs at Elland Road in October, when both teams hit the woodwork.
Punters could have a ball with Danso card
With Tottenham captain Cristian Romero injured, Kevin Danso has stepped up to partner Micky van de Ven in central defence.
Danso was booked in each of his first three home games this term, against Aston Villa, Chelsea and Manchester United, and picked up yellow cards in all three of his league starts under De Zerbi.
Back Stach to strike early blow at Spurs
Leeds's haul of ten points from their last four games allows them to play with freedom at Tottenham and midfielder Anton Stach is an eye-catching price to score first.
Stach notched an eighth-minute opener against Burnley last time out, with one of his five attempts at goal, and broke the deadlock on his penultimate away start against Villa in February.
Tottenham vs Leeds Bet Builder
Both teams to score
Tottenham are desperate to complete a hat-trick of Premier League wins but Leeds have scored ten goals in their last four top-flight games.
Leeds or draw double chance
Despite their away wins at Wolves and Aston Villa, Spurs look too short for victory against a Leeds side playing with great confidence under Daniel Farke.
Richarlison to have one or more shots on target
The Brazil international has scored five goals in 758 minutes at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this term, also claiming crucial away goals at Liverpool and Villa recently.
