The Hammers welcome the Whites to the London Stadium on Monday night.
The game is an absolute must win for David Moyes and his players as they continue to push for a top four spot.
West Ham will fancy their chances of winning the match, having dominated Leeds in the return fixture at Elland Road back in December.
Marcelo Bielsa’s men will be no pushover, however.
Leeds are one of the most exciting teams to watch this season.
The West Yorkshire outfit are incredibly fluent when attacking but vulnerable defensively. They are easy to get at. But we had better be solid and well-organised at the back.

The Argentine told reporters today that Rodrigo Moreno, Kalvin Phillips and Jamie Shackleton are all in contention for Monday’s clash with the Hammers, as quoted by the Yorkshire Evening Post:
“It all depends on how they evolve in the following days.”
Having the three mentioned players back for the game against West Ham would be a very big boost for Leeds.
Bielsa’s squad depth is being well and truly tested to the limit at the moment.
Rodrigo, Phillips and Shackleton are very important players for the Whites.
And without those three names, Leeds could be in for a very tough evening against the Hammers.
