Leeds United will host West Ham United at Ellan Road on Wednesday (January 4) in the Premier League.

The hosts enjoyed a positive start to their season but have lost their way to find themselves in the bottom half of the standings. They have conceded an embarrassing total of 29 goals all season, making them the 5th worst defense in the league and it's no wonder their campaign has taken a down turn. Additionally, Leeds have a terrible home record going into this game as they have only won once in their last 5 league home games, losing three times and drawing once.

West ham on the other hand will be looking to make a statement in this match as they come into this game following a loss in their last game. They will be looking to give their fans something to cheer about as they have not been at their best in their most recent games. Regardless, they have been very decent at the back, as they have only conceded 22 goals all season, making them the 7th best defense in the league.

Looking at the records have shown that west ham have the upper hand in this game. They remain solid at the back, as opposed to their hosts, and they will be motivated by the need to redeem themselves and get their campaign back on track. We are backing WestHam here as we expect them to do enough to avoid a defeat by either securing a victory or by earning a hard fought draw.

利兹联将在周三(1月4日)主场迎战西汉姆联。

东道主本赛季开局不错，但却陷入了积分榜的下半区。他们整个赛季总共丢了29个球，这让他们在防守上排名第五，也难怪他们的战绩会出现下滑。此外，利兹联在本场比赛的主场战绩很糟糕，他们在最近5个联赛主场只赢了一场，输了3场，逼平了1场。

另一方面，西汉姆联将在这场比赛中发表声明，因为他们在上一场比赛中失利。他们希望给球迷们一些欢呼的东西，因为他们在最近的比赛中并没有发挥出最好的状态。无论如何，他们在后防线上表现出色，整个赛季只丢了22球，这使他们的防守在联赛中排名第七。

从比赛记录来看，西汉姆联在这场比赛中占了上风。与东道主不同，他们的后防线依然稳固，他们的动力来自于需要自我救赎，并让他们的竞选回到正轨。我们在这里支持WestHam，因为我们希望他们能够通过确保胜利或赢得一场艰难的平局来避免失败。
