Leeds must beat Tottenham on the final day of the Premier League season to stand any chance of avoiding relegation to the Championship.
Sam Allardyce has managed one point in his three games in charge, with United coming into Sunday’s round of fixtures in 19th. They must overhaul a two-point gap to 17th Everton while also hoping Leicester lose to stay up.
Spurs’ woeful end of season meltdown has seen them drop to eighth. They could rise or fall a place on the final day, but will need to better Aston Villa’s result to qualify for the early stages of the Europa Conference League.
Here’s the latest info on the clash at Elland Road.

Patrick Bamford went off in the first half of Leeds’ 3-1 defeat to West Ham which may mean Rodrigo is handed the striker spot in attack. However, the Spaniard has a knock of his own and still needs to be assessed.
Joel Robles will keep his place in goal ahead of Illan Meslier, but Tyler Adams, Stuart Dallas and Luis Sinisterra remain missing.
Leeds predicted lineup (4-3-3): Robles; Ayling, Kristensen, Wober, Firpo; McKennie, Koch, Forshaw; Gnonto, Rodrigo, Harrison.
Starting XI regulars Cristian Romero and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg missed Tottenham’s defeat to Brentford last time out, and while the latter could make a return, the former has been ruled out of the trip to Elland Road.
Eric Dier’s season is over after he underwent surgery on a groin problem, with Rodrigo Bentancur, Hugo Lloris and Ryan Sessegnon also out of the picture for interim boss Ryan Mason.
Tottenham predicted lineup (4-2-3-1): Forster; Porro, Sanchez, Lenglet, Davies; Skipp, Bissouma; Richarlison, Kulusevski, Son; Kane.
Two clubs engulfed by chaos meet on the final day, though it is Leeds’ immediate future in the Premier League which will be the main talking point on Sunday.
Allardyce is yet to oversee a win as Whites manager but has a great opportunity to end on a high against a Tottenham team that looked totally rudderless in the 3-1 defeat to Brentford.
Leeds may be able to record a win backed by a lively Elland Road crowd with Spurs in sorry form, having picked up only eight points since the start of April, but their top flight status will depend on how the games at Goodison Park and the King Power Stadium play out.
