The 16 teams West Ham could face in the Europa Conference League including Lazio and Fiorentina

West Ham United’s potential opponents for the Round of 16 stage in the Europa Conference League has been narrowed down to a list of 16 teams.

The Hammers set a European record on Thursday night in Bucharest, with a 3-0 victory over FCSB making David Moyes’ side the first club ever in the two-season history of the Europa Conference League to win all six of their group matches.

Winning the group means that the Hammers will skip February’s knockout play-off round and go straight into March’s Round of 16, where West Ham will face a winner from the play-off round.
