Seb Knows: Leeds United vs Tottenham Prediction & More

Tottenham Hotspur will be searching for their fourth Premier League win on the bounce when they travel to Elland Road on Saturday – a far cry from their 20th position just a few weeks ago. Roberto De Zerbi and co have dispatched Coventry City, Chelsea, and Crystal Palace in the last three games, all while conceding just one goal. This week, we are predicting betting outcomes from Arsenal vs Hull, Nottingham Forest vs Man City, and Brighton vs Brentford, as well as Leeds vs Tottenham.

Last week was a successful one for our Spurs bets. We could have afforded to push the boat out a lot further with our over 9.5 corners bet, seeing as Tottenham racked up a staggering 19 against Palace. Plenty of value to be had there. We also won our 1/1 bet, with Spurs leading at both half-time and full-time. Unfortunately, our only other win came as not BTTS in Brentford vs Forest, although we were very unlucky not to win our Brighton and Liverpool bets too.

So what about our predictions for this week…

Leeds United vs Tottenham Hotspur

One of the most in-form Premier League teams visits a team who can’t buy a victory at the moment as Leeds host Tottenham. Spurs have won their last three and are unbeaten in four, while Leeds are without a win in their last five games. Having said that, Daniel Farke’s side have drawn three of those matches, so Elland Road will be no easy task for the Lilywhites. Leeds may be down in 12th in the table, but only Brighton and Arsenal have conceded fewer than their eight goals this season. Unfortunately, only Sunderland and Nottingham Forest have scored fewer, though. The main takeaway – Leeds games tend to be cagey.

A win for Tottenham could take them up into the European qualification spots, and De Zerbi is slowly but surely getting his players back to full fitness. James Maddison was on the bench last week, while Pedro Porro and Destiny Udogie made their returns. Dejan Kulusevski is also slowly but surely getting up to speed. The one thing that will worry De Zerbi is Tottenham’s consistent lack of potency in front of goal. They had over 30 shots against Palace, but only scored from two headers, and Jan Paul van Hecke is now the club’s top scorer this season.

Nottingham Forest vs Man City

If Man City could hand-pick a team to play against to kickstart their season again, Nottingham Forest would probably rank pretty high. The Tricky Trees have been far from tricky to play against of late, losing four of their last five, while only picking up a single win all season.

Not that the Citizens were imperious in October either. Enzo Maresca’s side have recorded back-to-back defeats against Brighton and Aston Villa in the league, although a 3-2 Champions League win away to RB Leipzig will at least lift the mood a little. You suspect Erling Haaland might just run riot against a defence that has already conceded 12 goals in nine games this season.

Arsenal vs Hull

With Man City faltering (and at risk of a points deduction) and Arsenal beating Liverpool last time out, the 2026/27 Premier League season is starting to look like the Gunners’ for the taking. Arsenal have won eight and lost just once so far this season, while conceding the lowest number of goals in the division with just five. As if the defence wasn’t impenetrable enough, William Saliba is also back from his long-term injury.

Hull City may be without a win in their last five games, but the Tigers would have mauled your hand off for 11th position after nine games at the start of the season. Hull have been decent in front of goal as well, scoring 10 so far this season compared to Arsenal’s 14. While an Arsenal win seems more than likely, Hull have drawn five of their last seven Premier League games, so there is definitely potential for a banana skin here.

Brighton vs Brentford

Brighton vs Brentford is always an entertaining match full of good football and up-and-coming stars, but the fixture takes on new meaning this season. The Bees visit the Amex looking to break into the top four, while the Seagulls are up in third and desperate to close the gap on reigning Premier League champions Arsenal.

While Brentford started the season like a house on fire with wins over Tottenham and Chelsea in the opening weeks, they only have one win in their last five fixtures across all competitions. Brighton, on the other hand, just beat Man City at the Etihad and kept a clean sheet, and also have a 3-0 win over Arsenal and 5-0 wins over both Coventry and Palace to their name this season. This game really could go either way.

Keep an eye out next week when I will be predicting Tottenham vs Ipswich Town, Hull vs Brighton, Aston Villa vs Sunderland, and Liverpool vs Man United.
