Europa League

Fighting broke out between rival groups of football fans on Wednesday night in the city of Seville ahead of West Ham's Europa League Round of 16 tie against ...

It is two legs – we have this one and we are looking forward to the London Stadium next week. The group we have are capable. I see this as a great game for us.

Giovanni van Bronckhorst has one special European tie under his belt but now he faces a different sort of challenge.

You can see the danger even though we won the game comfortably on scoreboard but we’ve got no illusions next week is going to be a tough game still. We know it’s only halfway there but the boys were exceptional. We push each other every single day and work hard for each other. The boss tweaks it sometimes. Rangers will fancy their chances for more goals on the counter-attack as Red Star throw caution to the wind. He brings off the two Rangers players on a booking. Frustration creeps in for Milan Pavkov as he gives away a silly free-kick and lets Leon Balogun off the hook. For the third time tonight, Red Star have the ball in the net but this time the offside decision looks clear. Katai then leaves it to Sanogo and he dunts it straight into the wall. We push each other on. We really managed the game well and three goals to go into the second leg is a good position but we can’t be complacent and we know it will be a tough game and we’ll be going there like it’s 0-0. The gaffer pulls the strings and tells us what to do it and it worked.

Rangers fan favourite Calvin Bassey is in confident mood going into tonight's Europa League clash with Red Star at Ibrox.

“We are just going to go out there and try and give our best. But we’re a good team as well. “So I don’t see why we should look at ourselves as below anyone else.

David Moyes has made two changes from West Ham's Premier League clash with Liverpool as Hammers prepare to take on Sevilla.

At the back Moyes has made a change in goal with regular Premier League stopper Lukasz Fabianski missing out and Europa League goalkeeper Alphonse Areola coming into the side. Thank you for subscribing!We have more newslettersShow meDavid Moyes has made two changes from the West Ham side that were unfortunate to lose to Liverpool on the weekend with Declan Rice coming back into the team. With Rice back that means a slight change to Moyes' side with Jarrod Bowen missing out as a result of injury and Manuel Lanzini moving back to his regular No.10 role.

Europa League fixtures on Thursday: Seville vs West Ham (5.45pm), Rangers vs Crvena Zvezda (8pm); Europa Conference League fixtures: Leicester vs Rennes ...

The first legs of the Europa Conference League quarter-finals will take place on April 7, with the second-legs a taking place seven days later. The first-legs of the quarter-final ties will be played on April 7 with the return fixtures on April 14. The winners will enter next season's Europa League group stages. The eight group winners automatically go through to the last 16. The eight winners from the UEFA Europa Conference League group stage face the eight winners from the UEFA Europa Conference League knockout round play-offs. But he's with us and if Dec is fit and available then he'll certainly play."

Porto v Lyon, Wednesday 5:45pm (GMT). Porto were made to work hard for their spot in the last 16. Lazio pushed them all the way in their play-off ...

Rangers won the first leg 3-1 in Glasgow and Red Star won the second leg 4-2 in Belgrade. With no away goals in place to separate the teams, they had a play-off at Highbury, which Rangers won 3-1 after extra time. They lost the first leg 2-0 in Moldova but responded with a 2-0 win of their own in the return leg in Portugal and eventually won the tie on penalties. In terms of team news, Ryan Jack started Rangers’ 1-0 win over Aberdeen on Saturday after a brief stint on the sidelines and is available. The Scottish champions have lost only once in 2022, a 3-0 defeat at Celtic, and that is their sole loss in their past 23 matches in all competitions. They won their home games in both of those ties, so the match on Thursday night will be crucial. Braga beat Sheriff in the play-off round to book their place in the last 16. The goalkeeper Fernando Muslera was back in the squad for the first time since December in their 2-0 defeat at Konyaspor at the weekend and may return to the starting XI this week. Atalanta eased past Olympiacos in the play-off round, winning 5-1 on aggregate, but they have been given a tougher draw in the last 16. This has been a shocking season for Galatasaray, who are currently 12th in the Turkish Super Lig and have no obvious route back into Europe next season other than winning the Europa League. The good news is that they have no injury or suspension concerns for their first trip to the Camp Nou in 20 years. They are ninth in the table – as many points behind the league leaders, PSG, as they are above the bottom club, Bordeaux. But their form has picked up in recent weeks and they are coming into this tie on the back of a rampant 4-1 win at Lorient at the weekend. Ragnar Ache and Diant Ramaj are ruled out through injury, but Martin Hinteregger was fit enough to start in their 4-1 win at Hertha Berlin at the weekend and is expected to keep his spot after a solid display. This is shaping up to be a good season for Betis, who have already booked their place in the Copa del Rey final.

Home keeper Claudio Bravo kept his side alive heading to Frankfurt for next week's second leg with a string of fine saves, including from a second half Rafael Borre penalty. Frankfurt should have been out of sight but return from Seville with a 2-1 win thanks to Filip Kostic and Daichi Kamada's first half goals either side of of Nabil Fekir's equalizer. Eintracht Frankfurt and Olympique Lyon have taken big steps towards the quarter-finals of the Europa League with away victories at Real Betis and Porto in the first leg of their round of 16 ties.

David Moyes has asserted that West Ham fear no team as they prepare to face the Europa League kings Sevilla.

I know the winner was Spanish last year but we have a really difficult league to qualify for Europe." Probably we've found it harder in a different type of games, against the lesser teams, but we're playing a very good team tomorrow. “I think the group of players we have got are capable, there have been times in the season where I have thought it wouldn't matter who we are playing, that we would get a result and win."

Declan Rice trains with West Ham United's first-team squad ahead of their trip to Sevilla for the first leg of their Europa League last-16 tie.

The 25-year-old was forced off in the second half against Liverpool, but the Hammers have since confirmed that he has "suffered no significant damage" following a MRI scan. As for West Ham's opponents Sevilla, they have a lengthy list of potential absentees, with Manchester United loanee Anthony Martial one of six players to be assessed ahead of kickoff. Left-back Arthur Masuaku, who has been ruled out since mid-January with a knee injury, was also involved in training, but there was no sign of Jarrod Bowen, who remains doubtful with a heel injury.

West Ham have been punching well above their average under David Moyes, and this team feels better equipped to go all the way than previous Premier League ...

And for clubs often confined to domestic competitions by the dominance of the usual suspects, that is something to be savoured. For David Moyes and West Ham, it is a dual reward: for their outstanding season last year and for taking the Europa League group matches sufficiently seriously that they cruised into the knockout stages. Because this is not about Liverpool, the Manchester clubs, Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham, the sextet who almost seem to have a season ticket for Europe. It is about the rest, some aspiring to reach that level, others always aware their ventures abroad will have the feel of a one-off. Stoke lost to Valencia and Swansea in Napoli but they can savour the thought of such matches in a week when their opponents instead include Blackpool and Peterborough. But if a Soviet-era Tbilisi may not have oozed glamour, this is the kind of attractive European tie that irregular visitors to continental competitions can deserve. It may sound strange now, as they sit 192nd in Uefa’s coefficients, but Dinamo Tbilisi were once one of the best teams in Europe. They had won the Soviet league.

West Ham boss David Moyes will be speaking to the media today at his press conference ahead of the Hammers' clash with Sevilla in the Europa League.

It is a challenge to us and we have found some games against the lesser teams harder but we are playing a very good team tomorrow It is our first time here for so long and at the moment we are trying to stay in a European position in the Premier League which is so difficult. It is two legs we have this one and we are looking forward to bringing Sevilla to the London Stadium next week A few years ago we can see how English teams were good in Europe but in this competition, it is the most exciting thing for Sevilla fans. In the last two games we felt we if we had the finishing we would have been through in the cup and a great opportunity to take something from Anfield but we missed those chances. We were hoping for the best teams at the draw we wanted the best teams, to challenge them and see how we do. I have to say trying to beat the teams in this competition or the FA Cup it is a much harder job to win than it is to ask the question. This is what we are doing and I have hinted at it that we wil be adding to the squad. He has been in good form the last two to three months it will not change us a great deal but we are missing an important player just like Sevilla too. There has been a big change, West Ham have done a brilliant job to get into this position and we want everyone to be aware of that. I go into the games challenging the players to win and overcome the opposition. So to think where we have come in one year changed us from midtable to become a team challenging for Europe. This year we have been talked about for Champions Lague football.

Everybody knows the economic strength of these sides and they are having a very good season. “We are going to have to be very prepared, ready and alert to give everything to be able to beat West Ham. “They are a very physical side with a clear game-plan and we are going to have to be prepared to face the game.

“Obviously we know we are coming up against a strong opponent, a good team. Every day I just try to get better, keep improving.” “So I don’t see why we should look at ourselves below anyone else.

Rangers legend Brian Laudrup thinks the Light Blues can beat Red Star and reach the quarter-finals of the Europa League.

But they are not in the same class as the 1991 Red Star side that knocked out Rangers on the way to meeting Bayern Munich who I’d joined that season in the semi-finals of the European Cup.” They can deliver the club’s first continental quarter-final in 14 years by sticking to the qualities that have got them this far. With the first leg at Ibrox, Rangers are in a great position to take an advantage to Serbia as they look to reach the quarter-finals of the Europa League.

And the bad news for the Scottish champions is they could face a potential nightmare route to the showpiece in Spain. After reaching the last 16 stage in the last three campaigns, Rangers have now for the first time won a place in the draw for the quarter-finals. The Light Blues were well on course for the last eight of the competition after a stunning 3-0 first-leg win at Ibrox before completing the task in Serbia a week later.

West Ham face Sevilla in the Europa League round of 16 on Thursday with their Spanish playmaker determined to make an impression.

I understand that sometimes the best way to help the team is to be on the bench. If that happens I'm ready when the coach gives me the chance to play five minutes, 20, 30, whatever he thinks is the best to help the team." "I hope the Sevilla squad, the Sevilla players, watched that game and thought 'wow these guys are not afraid of anyone. It would be disrespectful for West Ham if he's not in the next England squad. This may be the a first season in Europe proper for West Ham since 2007, but David Moyes' side took to the competition like a duck to water in the group stages. You can be the best team in the group stages and after you're playing against Sevilla. The main thing is: for us it's all new. West Ham travel to Spain with the availability of several key players in doubt, most notably Jarrod Bowen and Declan Rice. Defenders Vladimir Coufal, Angelo Ogbonna and Arthur Masuaku are unavailable. "it's really difficult when you did a really good job in the group stages and after you've been drawn to play against Sevilla right now. "I've been lucky to play Europa League a few times and you never know," he says. It seems they never need additional motivation for this particular prize, but this year they have it with the final to be played at their home ground, the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan. But, in recent memory, their record pales in comparison to Sevilla. The Andalusians have won this competition a record six times despite the fact they had never won it before 2006. The other is making their debut playing at this stage of the tournament.

A promising season for Sevilla could be in danger of petering out but it would be no surprise if they finished with a flourish in the Europa League.

Last season’s top scorer Youssef En-Nesyri was out for most of the first half of the season. Captain Jesus Navas and Kounde and have both missed games either side of Christmas. A bluntness in attack has led to too many draws. Apart from Barcelona, Sevilla are surely the team to beat. Madrid (AFP) – A promising season for Sevilla could be in danger of petering out but it would be no surprise if they finished with a flourish in the Europa League.

We are on the right path." "That performance will give us a lot of belief and hopefully we can take that into the Europa League now," Noble said on the club's website. Sevilla, who has won the Europa League four times in the last eight seasons, will face a West Ham side which is battling for a trophy.

Celtic and Rangers will take a keen interest in the winner of both the Champions League and Europa League.

All four of the teams already in the quarter-final are highly likely to have qualified through their league position. However, they would enter at the third qualifying stage if the Europa League winners had already qualified for the Champions League group stages through their league. A group place is on offer for the winners of both the Champions League and Europa League.

With the decision to remove this rule, ties in which the two teams score the same number of goals over the two legs are no longer decided on the number of goals scored away but by two 15-minute periods of extra time and, if necessary, a penalty shoot-out. Galatasaray's visit to Barcelona has a UEFA Champions League feel about it, and it could be a significant occasion for one of the Camp Nou's modern favourites, with Jordi Alba in line to make his 100th UEFA club competition appearance. The Dutchman is facing a tough battle with Celtic as the Light Blues bid to retain the Scottish title, but European success feels like a real possibility after their success against Borussia Dortmund in the round of 16, a 4-2 win in Germany preceding a 2-2 home draw.

Sevilla have won 27 of their last 28 knockout ties in the Europa League. They believe that success here is a self-fulfilling prophecy.

And giving half of a city a chance to relive those moments that no other competition could have hoped to provide. Exerting all of its efforts to get into – and stay in – a competition that they have next to no chance of winning? They are incredibly proud that they have reached more European finals this century than any other club and more proud still that they have won seven of them. Perhaps it is an undue nod to sporting romance, but it is impossible not to buy into the notion that in the magic minutes – the late salvos against Zenit in 2015 that changed the tie in both legs, goalkeeper Andres Palop’s goal against Shakhtar in 2016, the extraordinary defensive resilience against Manchester United in 2020 – were only possible because Sevilla believed in their own destiny. The same three clubs (Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid) have finished in the top three positions in La Liga in each of the last eight seasons. They overturned a first-leg defeat against Lille, found an extra-time winner from Antonio Puerta (tragically killed a year later) after 200 goalless semi-final minutes and crushed Middlesbrough in the final in Eindhoven.
