There's EPL action coming our way on Friday this week, with a new weekend of top-tier action kicking off at Elland Road, where Leeds and West Ham will be up against each other in a game that is huge for both. Let's be perfectly honest, both teams are struggling. Of course, the newly promoted hosts have had moments of promise, and the fact that they have eight points after the first eight games is far from dreadful. After all, they are out of the relegation zone at present, and you can't ask for too much more than that. However, they're without a win in three and have lost each of their last two.
For the Hammers, it really is bleak. New manager Nuno Espirito Santo is yet to get a tune out of the East Londoners, who find themselves down in 19th place. It's early days, sure, but right now, the West Ham boys look as likely as anyone to go down. Not only have the visitors struggled from a results point of view, but several of their performances have been terrible.

Our Leeds vs West Ham Prediction
Summer signing Anton Stach has quickly become quite an important cog in Leeds' midfield machine, with his tenacity and ability to break up play, as well as his ability to shoot from range, quickly becoming evident to Premier League viewers. However, for all his positive contributions, Stach has made quite a few fouls, which tells me that he may start getting booked with greater regularity before long.
Let's face it, no Leeds player has made more fouls than Stach this season, with the German making multiple fouls in four out of eight starts. After all this is a player who got booked a little more than once every four games in the Bundesliga last season. Odds of +350 are worth taking, absolutely. Our Leeds vs West Ham Pick: Anton Stach to Receive a Card.
