West Ham one step nearer to learning Europa Conference League opponents after first leg tie

West Ham United are likely to be heading to Denmark in a few weeks for their Europa Conference League play-off qualifying clash.

The Hammers will be taking on either Danish side Viborg or Faroe Islands outfit B36 Torshavn for a place in the group stages of Europe’s third club competition, with the two possible opponents playing a third-round qualifying tie to determine who will face David Moyes side’ later this month.

Viborg played host to Torshavn on Wednesday night in the first of two matches between the two clubs and cruised to a 3-0 victory in a very one-sided affair. Jakob Bonde opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the first half but Clint Leemans and Marokhy Ndione struck in quick succession after half-time to seal a comfortable first-leg victory.
