Saturday sees Leeds travel to White Harte Lane for their first away game on the season. Spurs are rocked by injuries, but will be looking to bounce back from last weeks defeat at Birmingham..

Leeds travel to North London on Saturday, looking to continue the form that took them to within minutes of an opening day victory. Peter Reid will have the same bunch of players to choose from, after all reported a clean bill of health after Sundays game. Jermaine Pennant, sent off for the England under 21 side last night, is expected to join on loan this week, and may well feature. Jason Wilcox's place on the right wing would appear to be the most under threat, whilst Peter Reid will assess both Matteo and Radebe this week to see if their knee problems flair up again. Didier Domi would step into the breach should either player have any problem. Ian Harte did his chances of a recall no harm, as he impressed when coming on as a sub for Ireland. Danny Mills however looks to have talked himself out of a return as his outburst at been left out of the Newcastle game squad has angered Reid.

Tottenham had a miserable first game, losing at Birmingham, courtesy of a David Dunn penalty. Spurs have various injury problems, and Leeds old boy Robbie Keane added to their woes, as he was stretchered off during last nights Ireland win over Australia. The game also say Stephen Carr limp out with a hamstring strain, and he is another who will be struggling to be fit for the weekend.
