Backa Topola vs. West Ham

In pursuit of securing a berth in the Europa League knockout rounds, West Ham United journeys to TSC Arena in Serbia to take on Backa Topola in their second-to-last Group A match this Thursday.

This encounter marks the first meeting between the two teams since late September, when the Hammers secured a 3-1 home victory in the reverse fixture in East London.

November has proven to be a satisfying month for West Ham, securing victories in four of their last five fixtures across all competitions, notably against Olympiacos, Nottingham Forest, and Burnley.

In their Premier League encounters, the Hammers displayed resilience, coming from behind to beat Forest 3-2 and achieving a 2-1 success at Turf Moor against Burnley, with Tomas Soucek securing the winning goal in both games.

Currently occupying the ninth position in the Premier League, with a comfortable 15-point gap from the relegation zone and trailing just three points behind sixth-placed Newcastle United, West Ham now shifts their focus to Europa League action, aiming to claim the top spot in Group A.

What to remember – Backa Topola vs. West Ham

Backa Topola’s convincing victory against Partizan last weekend has provided them with a crucial confidence boost leading up to Thursday’s match. However, facing an in-form West Ham side poses a formidable challenge.

While the Hammers should not underestimate the hosts, especially considering their comeback in the reverse fixture against TSC, West Ham’s depth and current form suggest they have the capability to secure maximum points in Serbia.
