Leeds United will seek its first trip to the FA Cup semifinals since 1987 but standing in their way is relegation-threatened West Ham United.
Brenden Aaronson and his Leeds teammates will visit the London Stadium on Sunday seeking to continue a strong run in this season’s competition. Aaronson has struggled to replicate his goal contributions that carried into the new year, but he’s remained a consistent starter in Daniel Farke’s starting lineup.
The U.S. men’s national team attacker will be seeking to register his first goal or assist since scoring twice against Newcastle United on January 7. After a lackluster USMNT window last month, Aaronson will be hoping to get back on track fast.
If Leeds United wants to take a trip to Wembley later this month, having Aaronson among the standout stars will be needed.
