Team news & squads
West Ham team news
Former Chelsea defender Kurt Zouma is expected to replace the suspended Angelo Ogbonna in the heart of the West Ham defence.
David Moyes will also be without Gianluca Scamacca who is out with an injury. Nayef Aguerd had picked up an injury in the first leg but he is back in training and available for selection.
West Ham possible XI: Areola; Coufal, Zouma, Aguerd, Emerson; Rice, Downes, Paqueta; Benrahma, Ings, Bowen
It will be interesting to see the guardian of the goal for Gent in this upcoming fixture, as second-choice keeper Davy Roef has been preferred over their number one Paul Nardi in Cup competitions so far.
Boss Vanhaezebrouck has no fresh injury concerns to deal with ahead the crucial clash against West Ham and would want to field a lineup that's more or less unchanged from the first leg.
Club and league top scorer Hugo Cuypers should be the one leading the line. Alessio Castro-Montes was rested during the weekend but the wing-back is likely to return to the right flank.
Gent possible XI: Roef; Torunarigha, Okumu, Piatkowski; Castro-Montes, Kums, De Sart, Fofana; Hong; Cuypers, Orban
