There will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the West Ham United players having failed to take any points away from their recent 2-0 away defeat at the hands of Brentford.  They came away from that fixture with 47% of the possession and clocked up 4 attempts on goal with 4 on target. By comparison, Brentford managed 24 attempts on goal, with 10 on target.  

While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 9, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 11 goals and some valuable points in the process.  They have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games.  

They have lost 4 of their last 6 matches, which will be a focus of concern, but their 2 wins in that period did produce some valuable points nevertheless.

Grabbing a valuable league point from their recent 2-2 draw against Newcastle United will have been seen as a reasonably decent result for Leeds United.  Their share of possession in that meeting was 37%, while racking up 9 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. Newcastle United had 18 shots on goal with 5 on target.  

Whilst they have scored a reasonable 7 goals in their last 6 games, they are struggling to pick up points due to their defence, who have shipped 17 goals in the same period.  Their goal scoring now stands at 11 games in a row, but they have failed to record a clean sheet in their last 12 games.  

Results wise, their recent poor run of form has left them without a win in 7 games.  

Luis Sinisterra will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Leeds United.
