EUROPA CONFERENCE LEAGUE DRAW – WEST HAM WAIT NEARLY OVER

The play-off round of 32 draw for the Europa Conference League took place on Monday afternoon in Switzerland.

West Ham were not involved in the draw having won our group, with 6 wins from 6, so will await the winners of one of the ties.

The headline fixture from the draw was Braga vs Fiorentina, And Felipe Anderson’s Lazio were drawn against Romania’s CFR 1907 Cluj.

The play-off round of 32 features 16 teams that either came second in their Conference League group or third in their Europa League group, with teams all playing a side originally from the other competition.

It was also impossible for anyone to face a team from their country at this stage. But this will not impact West Ham.

The winners of the ties will progress to the last 16 of the competition where the winners of the Conference League groups will be waiting. 

The ties will take place over a two-week period, with the first legs on February 16 and the second on February 23.

The draw for the round of 16 will take place on the 24th February where West Ham will find out our opponents.
