Good afternoon and welcome to football.london’s live coverage of West Ham’s Europa League clash with Sevilla at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium in Spain.
It has been a long wait for West Ham to get back into European action with the Hammers topping their group back in early December, their reward was a spot in the last-16 and a tie with Europa League masters Sevilla.
It is set to be a tough test of David Moyes’ team’s European metal this evening but with the second leg back in London next week West Ham will fancy their chances if they can take something from Sevilla tonight.
Stay with us throughout the afternoon for all the latest from our West Ham reporter Tom Clark live at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium to see how the Hammers fare in one of their biggest matches in decades.
