West Ham Preview and News
Despite struggling in the Premier League and fighting for survival, West Ham managed to reach the FA Cup 1/4-finals after the elimination of Brentford in the previous round. Surely this competition is currently not a priority for the Hammers, but they still can do their best and qualify for the 1/2-finals. This is a good opportunity for them to do so.
Against Brentford West Ham managed to progress through penalties. Jarrod Bowen scored a brace in the game, but the Bees scored two as well. During the penalties Nuno Santo’s boys showed better nerves, though.
Jarrod Bowen remains the top danger in this current West Ham squad. The 29-years old winger has the pace and the skill to hurt any opponent. For Leeds it’d be imperative to hold him down.
Leeds United Preview and News
Leeds reached the FA Cup 1/4-finals with a solid 3-0 win against Norwich City at home. The Peacocks are doing a bit better in the Premier League than West Ham, but they are still not out of danger - Leeds are just four points ahead of the Hammers in the standings.
Before the break Leeds made another game without a win in the Premier League. Daniel Farke’s boys faced Brentford at the Elland Road, but only got a point after a 0-0 draw. Leeds didn’t win neither one of their last five matches in the Prem.
The Bulgarian international Ilia Gruev could return in Leeds’ line-up against West Ham while Daniel James is always a solid option for the attacking phase. Both of them started from the bench against Brentford while Gruev didn’t play at all.
