Leeds United visit the London Stadium for the second time in seven days as they square off with West Ham United.

The Hammers ran out winners in the third-round FA Cup tie and followed that up with a victory over Norwich City that saw them reclaim fourth place in the Premier League table.

Leeds are 16th, but their most recent league fixture was a critical 3-1 win over Burnley which has them five points clear of the relegation zone.

The £22m paid to Hull City looks to be a bargain for a player that will be in the England international squad sooner rather than later.

Raphinha (Leeds United)

Subject of much transfer talk due to his outstanding play, the Whites will be keen to hold onto the Brazilian, especially in the face of the club continuing to play with a shorthanded side.

Previous meeting

The two sides met just last week in the third round of the FA Cup with West Ham emerging 2-0 winners.

West Ham went in front in the 34th minute when Nikola Vlasic turned smartly in the box only to be denied by Ilian Meslier with Manuel Lanzini on hand to fire home the rebound.

Leeds were unhappy as they felt Bowen was offside in the build-up, but the goal was upheld after a lengthy VAR check.

Bowen and Fredericks both then went close to doubling the Hammers advantage before the former Hull man sealed the match on the counter in the third minute of injury time.
