West Ham United Vs Leicester City: Talking Tactics
David Moyes will very likely set his side up in a 4-2-3-1 formation which has been working for the team recently. He is expected to revert to a strong playing XI for this home encounter, so we could see Declan Rice and Tomas Soucek return to the holding midfield positions to try and dominate the centre of the park.
Brendan Rodgers could opt for a 4-1-4-1 formation and is expected to make a few tweaks to the starting XI. Patson Daka will lead the line against the opposition while Danny Ward returns in between the sticks to replace Daniel Iversen.
