The Premier League weekend starts early, with a Friday night clash between Leeds and West Ham at Elland Road.
Both teams have impressed so far this season, even if they both come into this game of defeats last weekend, and this could well be an entertaining match to watch.
Leeds start the match as favourites, but they have injury problems in central defence, with Robin Koch out for a prolonged period following knee surgery and Diego Llorente nursing a muscle strain.
They have already struggled at times on set pieces, as evidenced by Kurt Zouma’s goal for Chelsea last weekend, and only Leicester have conceded more from this avenue than Leeds this season.
We think this is a way that West Ham can cause real problems – there are a big side, after all, and have talented players to cross the ball. Hammers centerback Angelo Ogbonna scored against Aston Villa a couple of weekends ago, and we think he’s a good price to score anytime tonight.
Recommendations:
Ogbonna (West Ham) to score anytime, 1 pt, at 11/1, bet365
