Leeds United fans will be absolutely buzzing after Paul Merson’s claim ahead of the West Ham United clash.
West Ham play host to Leeds in the Premier League at the London Stadium tomorrow afternoon, and Paul Merson has made his prediction for the game.
The Hammers are all but safe, and could be guaranteed of our survival by later today if results go our way.
However, the same is not true for Leeds, with relegation down to the Championship a very real possibility.
Nothing less than a win will do for Sam Allardyce’s side tomorrow. And it seems as though they will have a great chance to do exactly that…
Leeds fans will be absolutely buzzing after Paul Merson’s claim ahead of West Ham clash
The well-renowned football pundit has just made his predictions for the latest round of Premier League fixtures, via Sportskeeda.
And Merson has a feeling that Leeds could have a superb chance to beat the Hammers tomorrow afternoon in East London:
“This is the perfect time for Leeds United to face West Ham. They have to make this one count. The Hammers are likely to rest a lot of their players after their Europa Conference League heroics. Leeds will need to take advantage of it. If West Ham win the Conference League title, it’ll be absolutely amazing. It’ll be an absolutely brilliant season for them despite hovering near the relegation zone for most of it. What a turnaround it will be for David Moyes if they do end up winning a European title! However, Leeds United will be hungrier this weekend and that could help them get a massive result.”
Prediction: West Ham United 0-2 Leeds United
I agree with Merson.
I’m sure that Moyes won’t make 11 changes to his starting XI for the clash with the Whites.
However, it would not surprise me one little bit to see him field a team similar to the one that lost to Brentford last weekend.
If Allardyce sees a weakened West Ham team before tomorrow’s game, the Leeds boss will be absolutely buzzing, as will their fans.
The Hammers have bigger fish to fry with a Europa Conference League final on the horizon. And Moyes absolutely must prioritise the game in Prague over our final two Premier League games.
