A comfortable first-leg lead will be tested fo West Ham today as they travel to Denmark to round off their Europa Conference League tie with Viborg.
The Hammers' Premier League form is dismal - three defeats from three games - and anything less than qualification on Thursday will leave an already frustrated fanbase very concerned, at best.
Viborg have fared better in their league, with three wins and three defeats, but will fancy their chances with a fast start despite losing the first leg 3-1.
