After their win over Brighton at Elland Road, Leeds United travel to London for the final game of their season. The Whites signed off in style in their last home game.
They beat Brighton with a dramatic last minute goal from Dominic Calvert-Lewin to seal all three points. Fans were treated to a great send-off in the club’s penultimate game of the campaign.
West Ham will be their opponent on the final day, with Leeds set to play a huge part in who gets relegated this season. The Whites held Spurs to a draw last week, preventing them from taking a step towards survival
With Tottenham losing midweek, it means just two points separate them and the Hammers heading into the final day. West Ham need a win, and Spurs to lose to stand a chance at survival.
Leeds United to miss six players for West Ham game
Unfortunately for Daniel Farke’s side, they will have to deal with a long list of absentees. Ilia Gruev is out for the season with a long-term injury, while Pascal Struijk recently underwent surgery.
Noah Okafor could make the final game of the season after missing the last few games with a calf problem, and Jayden Bogle is also a huge doubt. Leeds United fans may have seen the last of Gabriel Gudmundsson, who has been out for weeks with a hamstring problem.
And it was confirmed on Thursday that Anton Stach will miss the West Ham game with a knock he picked up in the last game. This means the team could be without up to six first team players in London.

Daniel Farke’s men will be up for the task away from home
Leeds managed to get a result against Brighton with most of these players out injured, so it should not be a problem heading into the West Ham game. Daniel Farke keeps defying expectations with this team.
It seems like no matter who comes or goes in the lineup, this team always shows fight on the pitch. And that is what has helped them navigate survival this year.
The Whites will definitely be up to get a win against the Hammers on Sunday. Leeds have faced Nuno’s side twice this season and are unbeaten against them.
Farke’s men could give the travelling support a day to remember at the London Stadium.
