- West Ham play Leeds United tomorrow at 4:30PM BST
- The winner will head to Wembley in the FA Cup semi finals
- The Hammers beat Brentford on penalties to get to this round of the competition
West Ham United return to action tomorrow, as they host Leeds United in the FA Cup quarter finals. Nuno Espirito Santo is hoping his team can progress to Wembley and get back to winning ways, after losing 2-0 to Aston Villa before the international break.
Leeds United are almost in the same boat as West Ham, with their main focus being on staying in the Premier League. Daniel Farke’s team have drawn their last two matches 0-0 in games they will feel they dropped two points in.
Here’s who we think will start the game tomorrow afternoon.
Alphonse Areola (GK)
Now behind Mads Hermansen in the pecking order, Alphonse Areola started the Hammers win over Brentford in the last round and is expected to keep his place on Sunday.
Ollie Scarles (LB)
Another to start the last cup tie that remains in place is Ollie Scarles. El Hadji Malick Diouf returned late from his stint with Sengal and Nuno would be wise to not risk him is not needed.
Axel Disasi (CB)
The big success story of January keeps his place. Axel Disasi continues to play every game for West Ham.
Konstantinos Mavropanos (CB)
Konstantinos Mavropanos picked up a knock with Greece but is said to be in a better state than Jean-Clair Todibo, so he starts this game.
Kyle Walker-Peters (RB)
Like Diouf, Aaron Wan-Bissaka returned late from Africa, paving the way for Kyle Walker-Peters to get another FA Cup start.
Mateus Fernandes (CM)
The lynchpin to most West Ham moves, Mateus Fernandes starts on the back of his first Portugal cap.
Tomas Soucek (CM)
Another player with a successful international break, Tomas Soucek stays in looking to bring some success to the Hammers pitch this time.
Mohamadou Kante (CM)
The young Frenchman has impressed in cameos throughout this half of the season. Mohamadou Kante starts this game just as he started the in the last round.
Adama Traore (LW)
Adama Traore hasn’t found the form he would have liked at the club but remains a solid option on that side. With the status of Crysencio Summerville still unknown, Traore starts again.
Pablo Felipe (ST)
Pablo Felipe struggled against Aston Villa but looked good when he started the game against Brentford. Nuno will hope he can recreate that game as he is given another chance to be the lone forward.
Jarrod Bowen (RW)
The England international and West Ham captain, Jarrod Bowen starts as always looking to add to his tally for the season and guide his team to Wembley.
Areola (GK); Scarles; Disasi; Mavropanos; Walker-Peters; Fernandes; Soucek; Kante; Traore; Pablo; Bowen
