Team news & rosters

|---|---|
| Goalkeepers | Lopes, Pollersbeck, Barcola |
| Defenders | Diomande, Emerson, Lukeba, Denayer, Henrqiue, Dubois, Gusto, Da Silva, Boateng |

Lyon began Europa League play by winning Group A. Les Gones had a dominant round, scoring 16 goals and scoring twice as many points as second-place Rangers. From there, the team advanced to the Round of 16, where it defeated Porto by a 2-1 aggregate score.
Karl Toko Ekambi currently sits in a tie for first in the Europa League in goals scored with six, with Galeno—who played for both Braga and Porto—also having six. Ekambi is well-positioned to move into sole possession of first, as no one else who is still in the tournament has more than four goals.
In Ligue 1 play, Lyon is currently in 10th place. The team is coming off of a 1-1 draw with Strasbourg in its most recent match.
Predicted Lyon starting XI: Emerson, Lukeba, Boateng, Guston, Aurora, Ndombele, Mendes, Faivre, Paquetá; Lopes.
| Position | West Ham roster |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers | Fabianski, Areola, Martin, Randolph |
| Defenders | Cresswell, Zouma, Coufal, Dawson, Ogbonna, Diop, Fredericks, Masuaku, Johnson, Alese, Ekwah, Ashby, Baptiste |
| Midfielders | Fornals, Lanzini, Vlasic, Noble, Soucek, Kral, Rice, Chesters, Perkins |
| Forwards | Yarmolenko, Antonio, Bowen, Benrahma, Okoflex |
West Ham is already in the midst of its most successful Europa League campaign, as it has never made it this far. The Irons won Group H, then beat Sevilla by a 2-1 aggregate in the Round of 16.
Said Benrahma leads West Ham in goals scored during the Europa League with three, but he hasn’t scored since the group stage.
West Ham United is currently sixth in the Premier League with 51 points and holds the qualification spot for next season’s Europa Conference League at the moment, but has to hold off Manchester United if it wants to keep that spot.
Predicted West Ham starting XI: Fredericks, Dawson, Zouma, Coufal, Soucek, Rice, Bown, Fornals, Benrahma, Antonio; Areola.
