Intercepting request via provider

[ninjz]

I'm looking for a way to intercept requests made through this library so I can capture the request being made to forward to Datadog to debug some slow network calls.

Is there any way to do this? I suspect creating a custom provider is somewhere in the right direction as I saw in this discussion: #5025 but I'm kind of stuck from there as I don't see any way to do that within the Web3.providers.HttpProvider class.
