West Ham United boss David Moyes has named his side to face Gent at the London Stadium.
The Hammers will look to book their place in the semi-finals in the Europa Conference League after drawing 1-1 with Gent in the first leg of the quarter-final tie at the Ghelamco Arena a week ago.
As the Irons look to set up a semi-final tie against either Anderlecht or AZ Alkmaar, Moyes has made three changes to face Gent from the side that drew 2-2 with Arsenal in the Premier League on Sunday.

As expected, Alphonse Areola starts in goal and becomes the only member of the West Ham squad to start all 12 Europa Conference League matches this season.
Nayef Aguerd returns to the 11 after missing the draw with Arsenal with a minor ankle issue. Left-back Emerson also comes into the starting 11, with Lukasz Fabianski, Aaron Cresswell and Thilo Kehrer all dropping to the bench.
Midfielder Manuel Lanzini loses his perfect record of starting every match in the competition this season.
Italian centre-back Angelo Ogbonna is absent due to suspension, having picked up his third booking in Europe this season during the first leg. Meanwhile, Italian striker Gianluca Scamacca is set to miss the rest of the season after undergoing knee surgery.
With only 21 senior players available, midfielder Freddie Potts and striker Divin Mubama make the bench.
Meanwhile, Gent boss Hein Vanhaezebrouck has made two changes from the side that drew 1-1 with Mechelen in the Belgian Pro League on Sunday.
West Ham United starting XI: Lukasz Fabianski; Vladimir Coufal, Kurt Zouma, Nayef Aguerd, Emerson; Tomas Soucek, Declan Rice, Lucas Paqueta; Jarrod Bowen, Michail Antonio, Said Benrahma
