Leeds United's under-23s finally return to action this evening with a league clash against Tottenham Hotspur at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Mark Jackson's young Whites have not played since recording a 3-0 victory against league visitors Liverpool way back on February 7.

United's under-23s then saw three games postponed due to the influx of storms that hit the country, a league trip to Brighton and the Premier League Cup clash away at Mansfield Town falling by the wayside.

The game against the Stags was called off twice.

Finally back in action

It’s been a long wait for Leeds United’s under-23s.

Mark Jackson’s young Whites have not played since recording a 3-0 victory against league visitors Liverpool way back on February 7.

United’s under-23s then saw three games postponed due to the influx of storms that hit the country, a league trip to Brighton and the Premier League Cup clash away at Mansfield Town falling by the wayside.

The game against the Stags was called off twice.

But the young Whites are finally back in action tonight and striker Sam Greenwood looks set to return.

The forward took to his Instagram story earlier to post a preview of tonight’s game together with the words “first one back.”
