West Ham took a while to kick into gear in their Europa Conference League opener and will know Silkeborg could tonight prove a banana skin.
FCSB took a half-time lead at the London Stadium last week before two goals in five minutes turned the game around. Silkeborg went down valiently to Anderlect 1-0.
The Hammers are in fine shape as they prepare to fly out to Denmark, having had the weekend off, meaning David Moyes has some welcome team selection decisions to make.

Silkeborg vs West Ham prediction
West Ham will know they won't have it all their own way in Denmark, with Silkeborg proving last week they are no whipping boys and the Hammers hardly lighting up east London this season.
But, the gulf in class cannot be ignored and the Hammers, even with significant changes, should run out fairly comfortable winners.
West Ham to win 3-1.
