West Ham take on TSC Backa Topola looking to secure their place in the knockout stages of the Europa League.

Another solid continental campaign from last year’s Europa Conference League winners leaves the London club likely for a top two spot in the group.

David Moyes’s side are level on nine points with Freiburg and face the German club in their final group game, but will be seeking two wins from two with only the top-placed finished advancing directly to the round of 16.

TSC are out of the competition but still have a chance of Conference League qualification - they trail Olympiakos by three points.
