While domestic life has been tough for the Hammers, they look like one of the favorites for the league as a whole. Nice and Fiorentina offer strong competition, but as they reached the semi-finals of the Europa League last season, there’s little reason why West Ham can’t dream of a famous trophy at the end of the season, even if the Premier League isn’t quite up to par. plan expires.
Roma won the tournament last year and the celebrations from Jose Mourinho’s team somewhat ensured that the Conference League was something to win. For West Ham, that is hardly something to pass up. Follow the draw LIVE with Standard Sport’s special blog!

Who will West Ham face in the quarter-finals of the Europa Conference League? Potential opponents for a draw today
West Ham are among the favorites for victory in the Europa Conference League competition.
David Moyes’ side defeated AEK Larnaca 4-0 at home on Thursday night to seal safe passage to the next round on a night that saw several other major teams fall.
Lazio and Villarreal were unable to reach the quarter-finals after losing to AZ Alkmaar and Anderlecht respectively.
The Belgians have of course already lost to the Hammers this season, raising hopes that the Premier League relegation fighters are on course for a famous trophy. Nevertheless, Fiorentina and Nice provide stiff competition in the final phase.
There is heaps of quality in Moyes’ team, even apart from a patchy domestic form. Declan Rice, Lucas Paqueta, Nayef Aguerd and Gianluca Scamacca have an enviable backbone that any team can handle.
