Prediction: 4-0
AEK Larnaca
West Ham and AEK Larnaca face each other at London Stadium in a David-vs-Goliath clash. The Hammers won the first leg in style (2-0), and they are now on a quest to defend their two-goal lead in front of home fans. The good news for the hosts is that Michail Antonio, who scored a brace in the first leg, has overcome his injury, but both Fabianski and Coufal remain in the recovery room.
The Cypriotes, on the other hand, face an uphill task in the return leg, as they need to record a big win over the star-studded Premier League side. As previously mentioned, David faces Goliath in London, and anything but a routine home win would be a big surprise. Both Garcia and Pons are back from suspensions, but Gama and Paraskevas should miss out with injuries for the away team.
