West Ham face Genk tonight knowing a win will put them in a strong position to reach the knockout stage of the Europa League.

The Hammers have 100 per cent record from their opening two European games after wins over Dinamo Zagreb and Rapid Vienna.

Another victory against Genk would leave them in a commanding position in Group H.

David Moyes is likely to make changes to his team with Sunday’s Premier League clash with Tottenham in mind, but West Ham should be too strong for a Genk side sixth in the Belgium Jupiler Pro League.

Date, kick-off time and venue

West Ham vs Genk is scheduled for an 8pm BST kick-off on Thursday at the London Stadium.

Where to watch West Ham vs Genk

TV channel: Tonight’s match will be televised on BT Sport 2.
