West Ham United will entertain Anderlecht at the London Stadium on matchday four of the UEFA Europa Conference League on Thursday.
The two teams will be meeting for the second time in a week, with the match in Brussels last week ending in a 1-0 away win for the Hammers. Gianluca Scamacca scored the only goal of the game, coming off the bench in the second half.
West Ham continued their winning form in the Premier League on Sunday, recording a 3-1 win over local rivals Fulham. Scamacca scored for the third game in a row and will be looking to add another one in this home game. Anderlecht returned to winning ways with a 3-1 away win against Mechelen on Sunday.
Last week's defeat was Anderlecht's first loss in the Conference League and they'll be hopeful of a positive outcome here. The Hammers have recorded three wins in a row in the competition and are the favorites from Group B to qualify for the knockout stage.

West Ham have seen an uptick in form in recent games and have made it three wins in a row. They are undefeated in their last four games at home and are the favorites to secure a win. They have been in solid form in the Conference League and a defeat for them seems unlikely.
Anderlecht have scored just one goal in the competition and this goalscoring drought might prove to be their undoing here. They have just one win in their last four away games. With that in mind, the game should end in a comfortable win for the Hammers.
