West Ham Utd vs Leeds Utd – Predicted lineup and team news
West Ham United host Leeds United today, aiming to reach their first FA Cup semi-final in two decades.
The Hammers have moved into the quarter-finals after a dramatic penalty win over Brentford. Manager Nuno Espírito Santo oversaw a strong home run, with the side unbeaten in six at the London Stadium. West Ham have been eliminated from eight of their last ten FA Cup quarter-final ties. They now seek to end that trend tonight.

West Ham team news
Nuno Espírito Santo manages a squad hopeful of a key attacking return. Crysencio Summerville faces a late fitness test after suffering a calf injury in March. Consequently, his availability remains uncertain until shortly before kick-off.
Crucially, Jarrod Bowen enters the match in excellent form against the visitors. He has scored in all three of his previous appearances against Leeds at this venue.
Alphonse Areola will start in goal behind a defence featuring Konstantinos Mavropanos and Axel Disasi. In midfield, Tomáš Souček returns following World Cup qualification success with the Czech Republic.
