Lyon's place in the Europa League semi-final for the first time since 2016-17 is far from certain, but they do enter into the second leg on the strength of a five-game unbeaten run, with four of those games ending in draws. Lyon has only won one of their previous six games in all competitions, but they are one of only two teams in this season's Europa League who have yet to lose in the group stage (the other being Eintracht Frankfurt), and West Ham aren't exactly full of confidence. Lyon's first-choice goalkeeper Anthony Lopes was substituted after half an hour against Strasbourg, while midfielders Ndombele and Houssem Aouar suffered thigh and knee injuries later in the game. Maxence Caqueret's knee injury and Thiago Mendes' knock have added to Bosz's midfield woes, while Rayan Cherki, Lenny Pintor, and Sinaly Diomande have all been ruled out. Due to a dearth of choices in the engine room, former Arsenal man Jeff Reine-Adelaide may be given a rare chance to shine, and Bosz may even contemplate switching to a back five due to his multitude of possibilities at centre-back. Following Cresswell's questionable red card, West Ham needed no second invitation to express their displeasure, and the fast turnaround for the weekend's Premier League encounter with Brentford surely hurt them in that London derby. After Bryan Mbeumo and Ivan Toney combined twice to give Brentford a 2-0 win on their own turf at the weekend, David Moyes' team are now considered rank outsiders for a top-four finish, therefore it wouldn't be shocking if he prioritized success in the Europa League. West Ham's 2022-23 European ambitions are unlikely to be boosted by having to face Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester City before the Premier League season ends, and they have won just three of their nine games since the start of March, all of which have taken place at the London Stadium. The setback at the Brentford Community Stadium was West Ham's seventh in a run away from home, during which time they have only scored twice, but Lyon's recent rash of injuries can be exploited. West Ham, on the other hand, has been knocked out of Europe on each of the last three occasions they have failed to win a knockout leg at the Groupama Stadium. With Lyon's tiny midfield waiting to be sliced open by West Ham's attackers, and Moyes' first-choice backline also unavailable, this is an exceedingly difficult second leg to predict but West Ham is the better team on a paper n odoubt. Goals could be on the cards between two sides with plenty of talent in the final third.

里昂自2016-17赛季以来首次进入欧罗巴联赛半决赛还远未确定,但他们确实凭借五场不败的战绩进入了第二回合,其中四场比赛都以平局告终。里昂在之前的六场比赛中只赢了一场,但他们是本赛季欧洲联赛中仅有的两支小组赛未输掉的球队之一(另一支是法兰克福队),而西汉姆联队也没有十足的信心。里昂的第一门将安东尼·洛佩斯在对斯特拉斯堡比赛半小时后被换下,中场恩多贝莱和奥亚尔在比赛后大腿和膝盖受伤。卡克雷特的膝伤和门德斯的受伤加剧了博兹中场的伤情,而切尔基、平托和迪奥曼德都将缺席比赛。由于引擎室缺少选择,前阿森纳球员杰夫-莱因-阿德莱德可能会得到一个难得的机会,而博兹甚至可能考虑换到五后卫,因为他在中后卫的多种可能性。在克雷斯维尔被出示了可疑的红牌后,西汉姆无需第二次被邀请就表达了他们的不满,而周末与布伦特福德的英超联赛的快速逆转无疑在伦敦德比中伤害了他们。上周末,布莱恩·姆beumo和伊万·托尼在自己的地盘上联合两次为布伦特福德带来2-0的胜利后,大卫·莫耶斯的球队现在被认为是前四名的外来者,因此,如果他优先考虑在欧罗巴联赛中取得成功,也不会令人吃惊。西汉姆在2022-23赛季结束前必须面对切尔西、阿森纳和曼城,因此他们在欧洲赛场上的雄心不太可能被提振。自3月初以来,他们只赢得了9场比赛中的3场,所有这些比赛都是在伦敦体育场进行的。这次在布伦特福德社区球场的失利是西汉姆联在客场的第七次失利,在此期间他们只进了两个球,但里昂最近的伤病是可以利用的。另一方面,西汉姆联队在过去三次淘汰赛中都被淘汰出了欧洲赛场。里昂的小中场正等着被西汉姆的攻击者撕开,莫耶斯的首选后防线也没有,这是一个非常难以预测的第二回合,但西汉姆无疑是更好的球队。两队在最后三分之一的比赛中都有大量的天才球员,进球的可能性很大。
