Leeds vs West Ham: Match preview
Leeds welcome West Ham to Elland Road on Friday night.
West Ham’s three-match winning run came to an end last week as they suffered a 3-1 home defeat to Manchester United.
West Ham took a first-half lead through Tomas Soucek and the Hammers wee in front for much of the game. However, United turned things around with three goals in 13 second-half minutes to claim all three points.
The result left West Ham 8th in the table on 17 points. A win on Friday would move them up to 5th, at least temporarily.
Like West Ham, Leeds also gave took an early lead before losing 3-1. Patrick Bamford opened the scoring early on for Leeds, who are 14th in the table. A win for them would move them into the top half.
Leeds’ home form ranks 14th in the league, with one win and two draws from their five games at Elland Road. Marcelo Bielsa’s side have not won any of their last four home matches.
West Ham have won two and drawn one of their five away games this season. The Irons have only suffered one defeat in their last four away games – a 2-1 defeat at champions Liverpool. They held Spurs to a draw at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and crushed Leicester 3-0 at the King Power.
Friday’s game will be the first Premier League meeting between the two sides since February 2003. Seth Johnson scored the only goal of the game to earn Leeds a 1-0 win. Freddie Kanoute was shown a red card. The two sides have since met four times in the Championship.
In total, the two sides have met 20 times in the Premier League, with Leeds winning 14 of those and drawing a further four. Leeds have only lost one of their last 14 matches against West Ham in all competitions since 1998.
Leeds team news vs West Ham
Marcelo Bielsa made the unconventional move of announcing his starting eleven in his pre-match press conference on Wednesday.
Pablo Hernandez and Jamie Shackleton are both available, but neither will start on Sunday.
Leeds will make one enforced change from the defeat at Stamford Bridge, with Rodrigo replacing the injured Robin Koch. Leeds’ line up for the game is as follows: Meslier, Dallas, Ayling, Cooper, Alioski, Phillips, Klich, Rodrigo, Raphinha, Harrison, and Bamford.
Koch underwent surgery this week after picking up a knee injury against Chelsea. He’s set to be sidelined for several months.
Diego Llorente is out with a muscular problem, while Gaetano Berardi and Adam Forshaw are long-term absentees.
West Ham team news vs Leeds
David Moyes confirmed that Andriy Yarmolenko is back in training after recovering from Covid-19. “You’re never sure how quickly they will recover, but the good news he’s back, he’s fit and healthy”, Moyes said.
Michail Antonio could miss out again with a hamstring injury, while Ryan Fredericks is set to miss out with a groin problem.
Said Benrahma, Manuel Lanzini and Ben Johnson will likely start from the bench once more.
Robert Snodgrass is in contention to face his former club, although he is expected to start Friday’s game from the bench. Snodgrass made 168 league appearances for Leeds between 2008 and 2012.
