Team news

Luis Sinisterra, Archie Gray and Stuart Dallas are out while Patrick Bamford is a major doubt.

West Ham
Nayef Aguerd and Michail Antonio are both expected to feature but Kurt Zouma and Maxwel Cornet remain out for the Hammers.

Match preview

David Moyes is coming under increasing pressure as West Ham manager after his side’s 2-0 defeat to Brentford, their fifth Premier League defeat in a row which has left the Hammers staring down the barrel of a potential relegation scrap.

They visit fellow strugglers Leeds, who are two points behind their hosts with a game in hand.

The Whites were a touch fortunate to hold Newcastle to a 0-0 draw last time out but their defensive solidity was impressive and they managed the game well against one of the in-form teams in the division.

Jesse Marsch’s men will be pleased to return to Elland Road, where his side have taken 11 of their 16 points this season.

Both teams have scored in four of Leeds’s last six home games and we could be in for more goals in what is set to be a competitive encounter under the lights.

Both teams have also found the net in seven of the last nine meetings between this pair so they can usually be relied upon for a good showing.
