Could you pls tell which one is right in the sentences? You look tired in class today---1 You look tired in today's class--2 Are they both right?

They're both grammatically correct, but it doesn't sound quite natural. If we imagine that you're currently in class, the natural thing to say would be: "You look tired" or "You look tired today". When you add "in class", it sounds a bit off. If we imagine that you already left class, then you could say: "You looked tired in today's class" or "You looked tired in class today". Just to reiterate, your sentences are both technically correct, I just can't think of a context where they would sound natural.
1
You look(ed) tired in class today - it should be past tense You look tired in today's class
1
You looked (past tense) tired in class today. (earlier, before now) You look tired in today's class (right now class is happening)
