David Moyes' side are struggling in the Premier League this season after three straight losses but have a chance to put that behind them for now with a ...

What a start by the home side! Areola, Johnson, Kehrer, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Soucek, Lanzini, Benrahma, Fornals, Cornet, Scamacca The Hammers have the advantage in this one after strolling to a 3-1 first leg lead against Viborg in west London last week.

Three of West Ham United's summer signings start his evening's UEFA Europa Conference League play-off round second leg at Viborg.

Tomáš Souček and Manuel Lanzini will likely anchor the midfield, with an attacking trio of Benrahma, Cornet and Pablo Fornals providing the firepower alongside Scamacca. It means that Alphonse Areola continues in his customary role between the posts on European nights, with a back four of Ben Johnson, Angelo Ogbonna, Kehrer and captain Aaron Cresswell in front of him. In all, there are four changes to David Moyes’ team from the first leg, as Kehrer, Pablo Fornals, Aaron Cresswell - back from suspension - and Saïd Benrahma come into the starting XI.

Well, no – they just move the ball incredibly well when they win possession and can see a channel to run into. The best at that in the country? There is life outside the Premier League folks. Viborg had nine shots in the first leg. Nice to think that if West Ham win this, they can join the lofty ranks of Europe’s elite, like Shamrock Rovers. But the issue lies exactly there.

West Ham United will look to book their place in the group stages of the Europa Conference League this evening against Viborg at the Energi Viborg Arena ...

And it looks like the club are choosing to buy foreign players with bids placed for Brazilian international Lucas Paqueta and It's Said who gets down the right with a nutmeg. Get his body in the way of the ball so he had to be fouled on the halfway line. Whoever wins on aggregate will be confirmed in the competition’s group stages. Soucek with a low cross and Scamacca got in front of his man to finish home. Gianluca Scamacca with a great finish at the near post. Struck well, but a good save to match. A low cross from him is cleared before it got to Scamacca. Headed into the ground easy for Areola. Important from the Frenchman. football.london is at today's match at the Energi Viborg Arena. Both will be back for the second leg tonight.
