Police step up patrols for Leeds FA Cup replay
An extensive operation has been mounted to prevent a repeat of the disorder at the previous fixture at White Hart Lane, police said. The game kicks off at 7.45pm. Chief Superintendent Mark Milsom, commander for the policing operation, said: "This is Leeds United's biggest home fixture of the season so far and we all know the stakes are raised because there must be a winner on the night.
"But our priority is to ensure that everyone involved can enjoy the match safely. By intervening early and dealing with issues in a positive manner we aim to quell any problems before they have the chance to escalate, and ensure that the match result is the only talking point."
