Freiburg vs West Ham: Europa League prediction, kick-off time, team news, TV, live stream, h2h results, odds

It has been a solid start to the season for the German side, bar last month’s 5-0 hammering away to Stuttgart, as they look to improve on last year’s run to the last-16 of the Europa League. Similarly, West Ham are in the top half of the Premier League and look well set to stay there after easing past Sheffield United last time out.

With this likely their toughest test of the group stage, David Moyes’ side then face Newcastle on the weekend in what could prove a pivotal week in judging their early-season fortunes.

Date, kick-off time and venue

Freiburg vs West Ham is scheduled for a 5.45pm BST kick-off today, Thursday, October 5, 2023.

The match will take place at Europa-Park Stadion in Germany.
