West Ham will enter the Europa Conference League potentially lacking some enthusiasm, but the prospect of any kind of European trophy will excite their fans in 2022/23.

The Hammers take on Romanian top division runners-up FCSB in their opener and will be determined to make light work of their opponents.

David Moyes will be determined to strike a healthy balance between success on the continent and steering his club back up the Premier League table following a dismal start.

West Ham sit 18th in the top flight after four defeats in their opening six clashes. The Hammers will be determined to claw their way back into the European picture before long.

FCSB currently linger in 13th out of 16 in the Romanian Liga I and will be the underdogs on their visit to London.

Our prediction: West Ham v FCSB

West Ham will be careful not to fully exert themselves in Europe, but they do need a morale boost. New signings and fringe players must use opportunities like this one to push for regular first-team places. Regardless of the XI, the hosts should get the job done here.

Our prediction: West Ham 2-0 FCSB (5/1 at bet365)
