Team News

Leeds
West Ham
  • Marcelo Bielsa has confirmed Patrick Bamford will miss out this weekend, with Tyler Roberts set to lead the line as a result.
  • Jack Harrison is over COVID-19 but Bielsa has hinted he is not ready to start against West Ham. Dan James will more than likely continue in the side.
  • Diego Llorente and Robin Koch are both injured, while Pascal Struijk is suspended. Luke Ayling hasn't been ruled out but is a major doubt so Kalvin Phillips may have to drop in at centre-back. Teenager Charlie Cresswell is another option.
  • Raphinha is also a doubt to leave Bielsa will problems all over the park on Saturday.
  • Michail Antonio was not risked against Manchester United in midweek but should return to lead the line here.
  • West Ham's second team knocked United out of the Carabao Cup in midweek and David Moyes can welcome back his best players here.
  • Kurt Zouma and Angelo Obgonna appears David Moyes' new first-choice centre-back pairing of choice.
  • Ryan Fredericks was forced off early on against United on Wednesday and is unlikely to play any part here.
  • Alphonse Areola was the WhoScored Man of the Match in the cup and but will have to wait before taking the No.1 jersey at West Ham.

Prediction

  • Leeds required penalties to beat Fulham in the Carabao Cup in midweek. They have only won one of seven games inside 90 minutes this season and that was against Crewe.
  • West Ham bounced back from defeat to Manchester United in the Premier League by dumping the Red Devils out of the Carabao Cup in midweek.
  • Despite defeat at home to West Ham last season, Leeds are unbeaten in four of their last five against the Hammers at Elland Road.
