Leeds Utd vs West Ham betting tips and summary
Jarrod Bowen to have 1+ shots on target – strong trend in recent matches
Ethan Ampadu to commit 2+ fouls – good recent trend at Elland Road
Leeds to have the most corners – excellent record at home under Daniel Farke
The EPL returns to Elland Road this Friday evening, as Leeds United host West Ham in a fixture between two sides struggling in the bottom half of the table.
Both clubs will hope to use this match as a platform to establish some much-needed early-season stability
Under Daniel Farke, Leeds have demonstrated a solid defensive structure so far this campaign. However, have been unable to find the offensive consistency required at this level.
Their 2-0 defeat to Burnley last weekend highlighted their struggle to turn possession into goals, with Farke no doubt hoping for some more positive news on the injury front to his attack.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s West Ham side enter the fixture following an extremely poor 2-0 defeat against Brentford at the London Stadium.
There is no doubting the quality that West Ham may possess in attack, but they were dominated in every metric by the Bees on Monday – a really worrying sign for the Hammers.
Friday’s meeting acts as the perfect opportunity to bounce back immediately and right the wrongs against another side close to them in the English Premier League table.
Another loss will put West Ham in a perilous position, immediately putting pressure on Nuno and his staff.
What are the best bets for Leeds Utd vs West Ham?
Jarrod Bowen to have 1+ shots on target
Has been successful in seven of West Ham’s eight EPL matches this season
Ethan Ampadu to commit 2+ fouls

Leeds Utd to have the most corners
Outstanding record under Farke for corners registered at Elland Road.
They have hit this line in three out of their four EPL matches this season.
