A famous scalp is West Ham’s objective tonight as Europa League stalwarts Sevilla head to London Stadium.
The LaLiga side, who have lifted the trophy more times than any other club, won the first leg 1-0 to propel themselves towards the quarter-finals.
David Moyes’ team bounced back to claim a win over Aston Villa on the weekend while Sevilla stumbled to a draw away to Rayo Vallecano.
With away goals not a factor in the last-16 tie, West Ham know that any one-goal victory will at least take the tie to extra-time and penalties. Anything more will mean a big Thursday night party going off in east London.
