"West Ham United have been handed a timely fitness boost ahead of their clash with Leeds United. The Hammers are still searching for their first win under new boss Nuno Espirito Santo, after the former Nottingham Forest head coach took over the reins from Graham Potter. A draw with Everton began his tenure, before back-to-back losses against Arsenal and Brentford have since followed, with a huge clash against the Whites to come on Friday."
"As relayed by Farke in his pre-match press conference previewing Friday's game, the Whites will be without forwards Noah Okafor and Willy Gnonto, as the pair continue to step up their respective returns from injury. "We have to take some late decisions," began the Leeds boss. "Okafor and Gnonto making good progress, but not able to complete team training this week. More realistic for Noah to be involved. Some illness in the group. [Ethan] Ampadu and [Pascal] Struijk missed team training.""
West Ham are searching for their first win under new boss Nuno Espirito Santo after a draw with Everton and losses to Arsenal and Brentford. The Hammers received a timely fitness boost ahead of the clash with Leeds United. Leeds have gone three Premier League games without a win, drawing with Bournemouth and losing to Tottenham and Burnley. Leeds will be without forwards Noah Okafor and Willy Gnonto as they continue rehabilitation, with Okafor more likely to be involved than Gnonto. Ethan Ampadu and Pascal Struijk missed team training, increasing the likelihood of Jaka Bijol making his Premier League debut after joining from Udinese.
