West Ham vs Leeds: Prediction, kick off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results - preview today

It’s an all-Premier League affair on Sunday as West Ham United welcome Leeds United in the third round of the FA Cup.

For both sides, it’s hard to view the competition as much of a priority. West Ham are battling for Champions League qualification on both a domestic and European front, while Leeds still have relegation concerns, albeit fairly distant ones after their win over Burnley.

Still, two famous FA Cup sides taking to this year’s edition should be an entertaining spectacle at least.

David Moyes might not quite be as enigmatic and revered as Marcelo Bielsa but both teams have impressed going forward of late, while struggling to keep goals out.

With all that in mind, it should be an enjoyable affair.
