West Ham can’t just look at UECL. It is 15th in the English Premier League (EPL), four points behind Nottingham Forest, which is in the relegation zone and 18th. Despite a lot of investment, sluggishness continued, and the future of coach David Moyes is also uncertain. The situation is so shaky that even talk of a successor director comes out. EPL retention is more important than UECL, but they are aiming for victory as much as it is held at home.
The data analysis company ‘Five 38’ estimated the probability of Hent’s semifinal as 30%. On the other hand, West Ham scored high at 70%. Hent wants to overturn the low probability and cause a change. Coach Hein van Hadserbrueck said, “I want to reach the semi-finals. I hope the semi-finals will be the most important game of the season. The goal we lost to West Ham in the first leg was a mistake. If we lose, we will regret it forever.” I made up my mind.
