West Ham (opens in new tab) are in the unusual position of competing for silverware in Europe while simultaneously battling against relegation from the Premier League.

Kick-off is at 5.45pm BST.
Team news
Gent will be unable to call upon the services of Darko Lemajic, Andrew Hjulsager and Sulayman Marreh.
West Ham’s only absentee for this first leg of this quarter-final tie is Gianluca Scamacca, who remains out with a knee injury.
Form
Gent head into this game on the back of a seven-game unbeaten run in which they have won five times.
Despite the doom and gloom around the London Stadium, West Ham have won three of their last four outings in all competitions.

VPN guide
If you’re out of the country for a Europa League fixture, then you won’t be able to watch on your domestic streaming service as usual. The broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!) and blocks you from watching it. You can use a VPN to get around that, though, without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, creates a private connection between your device and t’internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and will let you watch. And all the info going between is entirely encrypted, anonymous and safe – and that’s a result.
There are plenty of good-value options out there. For the Europa League, FourFourTwo currently recommends:
