Leeds United’s Tottenham relegation six-pointer moved to Monday night, eight pm kick-off | OneFootball

The Premier League has confirmed Leeds United’s trip to Tottenham Hotspur will now be played on Monday 11 May at eight pm, live on Sky Sports.

Daniel Farke’s side visit the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for their third-to-last match of the season. It looks set to be a significant relegation six-pointer, with Leeds 15th, two places and three points above Spurs.

Leeds and Tottenham will be the last of the relegation-threatened sides to play that weekend. Nottingham Forest host Newcastle on Sunday 10 May at two pm, with West Ham facing Arsenal later that day.

The Monday slot leaves travelling supporters with a demanding late journey back from North London, with the match finishing close to 10pm. London King’s Cross, which serves trains to Leeds, is at least 40 minutes from the stadium by public transport.

It is the second fixture in quick succession moved under the lights. Burnley’s visit to Elland Road in gameweek 35 has been rescheduled for Friday one May at eight pm, also live on Sky Sports.
