Leeds United host West Ham this Friday, October 24, 2025, in what’s shaping up to be a thrilling Premier League encounter. Both sides have been hit-or-miss this season, and with three crucial points up for grabs, expect plenty of intensity at Elland Road. Leeds will want to bounce back after a tough couple of games, while the Hammers are aiming to keep their European hopes alive.
Form Guide
Leeds have been all over the place lately — strong at home but leaky at the back. They’ve won two of their last five matches but conceded in almost every game. Daniel Farke’s side are desperate to tighten things up defensively.
West Ham, meanwhile, have been solid but not spectacular. David Moyes’ men picked up a scrappy win last weekend and will fancy their chances on the counter against a shaky Leeds defense. Still, inconsistency in front of goal remains a problem.

Team News
Leeds are still without key midfielder Tyler Adams, while Patrick Bamford remains doubtful with a minor knock. Georginio Rutter could lead the line again after impressing last week.
For West Ham, Jarrod Bowen is expected to be fit after a late fitness test, while Michail Antonio might drop to the bench. New signing Mohammed Kudus is likely to start after some strong performances in recent games.
Players to Watch
Leeds: Crysencio Summerville – lively, unpredictable, and capable of turning the game on its head when in form.
West Ham: Jarrod Bowen – the Hammers’ main man in attack, always a danger cutting in from the right.
Prediction
This one could go either way. Leeds will try to make the most of their home support, but West Ham’s experience and counter-attacking threat might give them the edge.
