Stan Collymore predicts result of Leeds United Premier League clash v Tottenham Hotspur
Stan Collymore has made his predictions for the final day of the Premier League season, including Leeds United’s huge clash with Tottenham.
The Whites host Spurs at Elland Road knowing they must win to have any chance of avoiding relegation, while hoping that both Everton and Leicester drop points in the process too.
But the former Liverpool striker took to his official Twitter account (28 May) to offer up his picks for the day of football ahead, and his prediction will leave Leeds as a Championship side for next season.
Not only did he go for a home win for Everton against Bournemouth, which would confirm their survival at our expense, but he also picked Leeds to only secure a draw against Spurs while he has also backed Leicester to beat West Ham 2-0.
Unexpected
It’s no shock to see that Collymore has followed the trend and backed us to be relegated, because in truth it will be a miracle if anything else happens today.
Everton just have to win their game to avoid the drop, while Leicester know that if they better Everton’s result they’re safe. For us, we need so many things to go in our favour that it seems almost impossible.
But with that said stranger things have definitely happened before, and we have to be ready to pounce if the opportunity arises. We have to score first to apply pressure to the other teams too, while also staying strong defensively to stop Spurs.
If we’re able to avoid relegation there will be a lot of people eating their words tonight and Monday after all the criticisms this week.
We have to believe, the players have to believe and then we’ll see what happens. But if we don’t win it won’t matter anyway.
