Deciding factors

Which factors will settle this match?

Home advantage, expected goals and the factor carrying the most weight here.

    Edge: Spurs

  2. Expected goals

    3.0 expected goals is above the league norm, and over 2.5 lands 58% of the time in our simulations.

Team shape

How will the two teams set up?

Official line-ups are announced roughly an hour before kick-off.

At home

Tottenham Hotspur

Spurs are organised and tough to break down, and they tend to earn results at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium by controlling the middle of the pitch.

Away

Leeds United

Leeds are a pragmatic mid-table team: sturdy out of possession on the road at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, but short of the creativity to dictate a game.

What could change

What would change the King Exchange prediction?

Team news and match events that would move our numbers.

  1. If Spurs field a weakened XI

    Rotation or a missing key player would take several points off their win chance. Line-ups drop an hour before kick-off.

  2. If Leeds score first

    The favourite must chase, and both the draw and the upset become far more likely.

  3. If a red card arrives in the first hour

    Playing with ten men rewrites the expected-goals picture, whichever team it hits.

The long read
