Leeds vs West Ham United Predictions

• West Ham have lost six of their eight Premier League fixtures.
• Leeds have only lost one of their four home matches.

Hosts look to bounce back

Leeds fell to a damaging 2-0 defeat against relegation rivals Burnley on Saturday, but the Whites may bounce back against a struggling West Ham on their return to Elland Road.

Daniel Farke’s side were unfortunate to see their home unbeaten run ended against Tottenham before the international break after winning the tie on expected goals, shots, and shots on target, and that followed decent displays at home to Everton, Newcastle, and Bournemouth.

Struggling Hammers show no signs of improvement

Friday’s opponents head to Elland Road having taken just one point from their last five Premier League outings, and their miserable display at home to Brentford on Monday did little to inspire confidence in new manager Nuno Espirito Santo.

The Hammers managed just one shot on target in that 2-0 defeat and remain second bottom in the Premier League ladder, harbouring the worst defensive record in the division.

Whites to boost survival chances

With points at a premium in this section of the table, back Leeds to inflict yet more misery on the beleaguered Hammers and put some distance between themselves and the drop zone.

The Whites have kept a clean sheet in two of their four home games, and they were unfortunate to concede twice against both Bournemouth and Spurs. West Ham have conceded 2.25 goals per game this term, so a 2-0 correct score prediction appeals.
