West Ham United boss David Moyes has named his side to face Leeds United at Elland Road.
The Hammers will look to return to winning ways on Wednesday night when they face the Whites, having not won a league match since beating Bournemouth in October.
As the Irons aim to return to pick up a vital win against another one of this season’s strugglers, Moyes has made four changes to face Leeds from the side that lost 2-0 to Brentford five days ago.
