West Ham Form

West Ham are unbeaten in their last 5 matches at home, winning 2 and drawing 3. They have also drawn their last 4 matches at home, one of which saw them beat Brentford in extra-time in their last FA Cup match. West Ham were also taken to extra time in their previous 2 FA Cup clashes against QPR and Burton.

West Ham’s last two matches were a 1-1 home draw against Manchester City and a 2-0 defeat away to 4th-placed Aston Villa.

Leeds Form

Leeds hit the quarter-final after beating Norwich 3-0 at home, before drawing 0-0 away to Crystal Palace and then 0-0 at home to Brentford. Keeping 3 clean sheets on the bounce (4 in their last 5 matches) is testament to their strong defence.

On the road Leeds are undefeated in their last 6 matches, with 4 ending in draws, one of which was in the FA Cup against Birmingham which Leeds went on to win 2-1 in extra-time. They have scored in 10 of their last 12 matches on the road.

West Ham vs Leeds Team News & Squads

West Ham have revealed that 24-year-old Crysencio Summerville is an injury concern for the quarter-final clash. Summerville joined the Hammers from Leeds in August 2024 and is struggling with a calf injury.

“We’re all trying to get him back as soon as possible. We’re assessing him day by day, and seeing how he improves. We aren’t at the point (of making a decision) yet. There’s still one day to go, and then we’ll make decisions,” said Hammers head coach Nuno Espírito Santo at a pre-match press conference.

“We’re assessing all the players, especially some after the international break. Many of them achieved big things, while some of them weren’t so happy, but we’re proud that so many of them went away,” added Santo.

Leeds have injury concerns around Anton Stach and Dominic Calvert-Lewin. Leeds striker Lukas Nmecha is excited about the possibility of making it to Wembley for the semi-final.

“I have never played there before. It would be amazing. I think for the fans it would be a good day out as well. We are close, so we might as well try and go all the way. It will be a challenge for them as well,” said Nmecha at a press conference ahead of the quarter-final clash.

“We have rotated a lot in the Cup, so it has offloaded a bit on the players that are playing more in the Premier League. We are ready for it again. I think it is important just to take the games as they come, not read into it too much, but our goal for the game is just to win,” added the striker who has scored 6 goals in 25 Premier League matches this season.
