Harry Kane produced a masterclass as Tottenham gave their Champions League hopes a shot in the arm and put Leeds further into the relegation mire with a dominant 4-0 win in this Premier League clash.

Leeds fell apart early on in front of an expectant Elland Road crowd, conceding twice inside 15 minutes as goals from Matt Doherty and Dejan Kulusevski put Spurs in the driving seat.

Kane volleyed home a third in the 27th minute - making Leeds only the second side in Premier League history to concede three or more goals in five consecutive matches in the competition, after Sunderland in November 2005 - and Son Heung-min completed the rout late on following a brilliant Kane assist.

A midweek defeat to Burnley had left a frustrated Antonio Conte questioning his Tottenham future, although he later rowed back on his post-match comments and attributed them to passion in the heat of the moment after a disappointing loss.

This was the perfect bounce-back performance for Spurs, who leapfrogged Wolves into seventh in the table but Leeds have now conceded 14 goals in their last three matches and appear to be staring down the barrel of a return to the Championship unless they can quickly turn things round.

Leeds host Tottenham in the Premier League

Welcome to The Independent’s live coverage as Leeds welcome Tottenham to Elland Road this lunchtime.

It has been a week of drama at Spurs, as boss Antonio Conte questioned whether he was good enough for the job after a midweek defeat to Burnley, although later confirmed his commitment to the club following talks with owner Daniel Levy. Aside from a mesmerising win over Man City, the north Londoners have been in dire form in recent weeks but a game against Leeds could be just the tonic.

The Whites have had plenty of struggles of their own in recent times as, shorn of talismen Kalvin Phillips and Patrick Bamford due to injury, a dismal run has seen them slide into the teeth of a relegation fight. Even their wing wizard Raphinha has been subdued and the spark which made them arguably the Premier League’s most entertaining team last season needs to be reignited sooner rather than later if they are to avoid a return to the Championship.
