Julen Lopetegui has shared his thoughts about West Ham ahead of the Europa League clash. Sevilla will host the Hammers in the Europa League's last-16 first-leg clash on Thursday, March 10. Speaking ahead of the game, Lopetegui said: "They are a very good club, who are fighting to be in the top four of the Premier League which is one of the best leagues in the world. "West Ham have a lot of very good players, [Michail] Antonio, [Declan] Rice, [Pablo] Fornals, no matter the absence of [Jarrod] Bowen. "They are the best team that Sevilla could have drawn in the Europa League, and David Moyes is a top coach with a lot of experience. "They have it all; they play in different ways, they press high, they have a good starting eleven and an extraordinary striker... Bowen is out but they have other great players like Fornals, Lanzini, Benharama... At the back they have [Kurt] Zouma, [Craig] Dawson, etc. We are talking about a team operating at a top level that have many ways to resolve problems. They practically only have Bowen missing." Sevilla are currently second in La Liga table with 8 points behind first-placed Real Madrid. While David Moyes' side are currently 6th in the Premier League table with 45 points.
