The Europa League excitement comes to East London!
This Thursday evening you can enjoy the UEFA Europa League clash between West Ham United and Olympique Lyon. This is a first-leg duel in the quarter-final stage of the tournament. These teams have never played against each other, so tonight it’s going to be interesting to see their first performance in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
West Ham United FC faced Sevilla in the ⅛ finale. In the first leg duel in Spain, West Ham lost the match by 1:0. But they bounced back in a great manner and won the rematch in London with a final score of 2:0. The Hammers showed their mental strength in the ⅛ finale, but tonight they will have another chance to prove their football capacity. So David Moyes will definitely set an offensive tactical approach and go for the victory in front of their loyal fans.
Olympique Lyonnais on the other side was the better team in the ⅛ final duel against FC Porto. Namely, in the first match that took place in Portugal, Lyon won the game with a final score of 0:1. Well, the rematch in France ended up with a draw outcome with a final score of 1:1. However, this was enough for Lyon to win the ticket to the quarte-finale of the tournament. Tonight they are facing another big challenge in England, so Peter Bosz must find a quality approach and try to outscore the hosting crew of West Ham.
We are expecting an intense football battle with many dramatic moments. The favorite for the victory will be West Ham because of the home-field advantage.
