West Ham United will face Danish side Viborg over two legs in the play-off qualifying round of the Europa Conference League.
The Hammers will face Viborg after the Danish outfit recorded a 5-1 victory over two legs against B36 Torshavn from the Faroe Islands, winning the second leg 2-1 in Torshavn last night after a 3-0 first leg victory last week.
David Moyes’ side will play host to Viborg at the London Stadium in the first leg on Thursday, August 18, at the London Stadium (7:45pm kick-off) before heading to Viborg for the second leg a week later on Thursday, August 25.

The second leg will kick-off at 7pm Danish time, making that 6pm UK time. The two legs come either side of a meeting with Brighton and Hove Albion in the Premier League.
Prior to the first leg, the Hammers will face Nottingham Forest in their first away fixture of the season on Sunday, August 14, at the City Ground against the Tricky Trees.
Should the Hammers seal victory over Viborg across two legs, they will be into the group stages of the competition that start a fortnight after their second leg against the Danish side.
