The Whites’ penultimate fixture of the season takes on even greater importance this afternoon following Nottingham Forest’s victory against Arsenal and Everton’s stoppage time equaliser at Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday.
Leeds are without key player Tyler Adams as he continues his recovery from a hamstring injury suffered earlier in the year, while Hammers boss David Moyes is expected to ring the changes following Thursday evening’s semi-final second leg victory over Dutch side AZ Alkmaar in the UEFA Europa Conference League.
Team news from 12:30pm. Kick-off is at 1:30pm.
West Ham United 3-1 Leeds United LIVE
Passive
71' Leeds are setting up in a 4-4-2/4-4-1-1 out of possession. McKennie joining Rodrigo in the forward line, who you suspect can't run at full tilt with whatever's bothering him.
62' Forshaw and Harrison off for Aaronson and Summerville. Rodrigo stays on, despite limping for the past ten minutes.
Meanwhile, subs are ready and waiting
61’ Robles with a leap to his right to deny Soucek’s downward bouncing header. Swipes it away for another set-piece.
58' Harrison takes down a crossfield pass beautifully, taking it in his stride then lifts a cross to the back post. McKennie heads over but Gnonto arriving just behind probably the better option.
