West Ham vs Lyon: TV channel, live stream, team news and kick-off time for TONIGHT’S Europa League quarter-final
WEST HAM continue their European adventure against Lyon in the quarter-finals of the Europa League.
The Hammers overcame a gruelling, tense two-legged tie with Sevilla last month, beating the Spanish side 2-1 on aggregate.

David Moyes‘ side became the first English in history side to knock Sevilla out of the Europa League.
And next up are Lyon, who also endured a tough last-16 clash with Porto, beating them 2-1 over two legs as well.
But West Ham will fancy their chances, having enjoyed a fruitful season in the Premier League, while Lyon are floundering in 9th in Ligue 1.
Moyes’ men will have to be in tip-top form, however, as a potential semi-final with Barcelona awaits.
