West Ham vs Leeds United history offers Tottenham fans plenty of optimism on Sunday

Wait 5 sec.

Tottenham Hotspur supporters will be keeping one eye firmly fixed on events at the London Stadium this weekend, and the historical record between West Ham United and Leeds United may provide the Lilywhites with a small reason for optimism ahead of the final day.West Ham United would have thought their Premier League fate was sealed after they fell short against Newcastle United last weekend.Hammers boss Nuno Espirito Santo looked dejected after the defeat and described West Ham’s survival chances as extremely difficult.However, Tottenham’s loss against Chelsea means West Ham still has a shot at retaining their Premier League status, although they will once again be relying on favours from elsewhere.If Nuno’s men are to remain a Premier League side next season, they will need Everton to beat Spurs while West Ham themselves beat Leeds United.Any other result will see the Hammers relegated to the Championship.Photo by SpursWebWest Ham vs Leeds record gives Tottenham reason for hopeThe head-to-head record between West Ham and Leeds will leave the Hammers slightly concerned, while Spurs fans will be rubbing their hands together in hope.The two sides have met 27 times in the Premier League, and it is the Whites who have mostly held the upper hand in those encounters.Leeds United have won 16 times against West Ham United, while the Hammers have managed just six victories. That certainly makes for nice reading for Tottenham fans, but what about more recent results?ResultTotalLeeds United wins16West Ham United wins6Draws5Leeds United goals44West Ham United goals26West Ham’s head-to-head record against Leeds in the Premier LeagueIn the last 10 meetings, however, the record has been far more balanced, with neither side holding a clear advantage, and that may concern Spurs supporters.Earlier this season, Leeds came out on top, while West Ham secured victory in the meeting before that. Overall, Leeds have won five of the last 10 encounters, while West Ham have won four, with one draw also recorded.SeasonVenueResult2025-26HomeLeeds United 2-1 West Ham United2022-23AwayWest Ham United 3-1 Leeds United2022-23HomeLeeds United 2-2 West Ham United2021-22AwayWest Ham United 2-3 Leeds United2021-22HomeLeeds United 1-2 West Ham United2020-21AwayWest Ham United 2-0 Leeds United2020-21HomeLeeds United 1-2 West Ham United2002-03HomeLeeds United 1-0 West Ham United2002-03AwayWest Ham United 3-4 Leeds United2001-02HomeLeeds United 3-0 West Ham UnitedWest Ham and Leeds last ten PL meetingsSpurs fans will hope Leeds repeat past results in LondonAt the London Stadium, though, the record is once again very close, with little separating the two sides.West Ham came out on top the last time the clubs met in East London and have only won twice in their last five home meetings against Leeds, with the Whites winning another two, while one match ended level.That makes it difficult to predict which side is most likely to come out on top when they meet again in London on Sunday, although Spurs supporters will be hoping Leeds get the better of the Hammers – or at the very least earn a draw.SeasonResult2022-23West Ham United 3-1 Leeds United2021-22West Ham United 2-3 Leeds United2020-21West Ham United 2-0 Leeds United2002-03West Ham United 3-4 Leeds United2001-02West Ham United 0-0 Leeds UnitedWest Ham and Leeds Premier League head-to-head record at London Stadium READ MORE: The Tottenham XI we want to see on the final day against Everton, with no Kolo MuaniThe post West Ham vs Leeds United history offers Tottenham fans plenty of optimism on Sunday appeared first on Spurs Web.
