Silkeborg vs West Ham United prediction, preview, team news and more | UEFA Europa Conference League 2022–23 

Silkeborg will entertain West Ham United at JYSK Park in the UEFA Europa Conference League on Thursday.

The hosts suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat at Anderlecht in their campaign opener with Fabio Silva scoring the only goal of the game for the Belgian club. Silkeborg bounced back with a 1-0 win in the Danish Superliga over AGF on Sunday.

West Ham, meanwhile, kicked off their Conference League campaign with a resounding 3-1 win at home over FCSB. The Romanian club opened the scoring in London, but the Hammers put in a solid second-half performance to seal all three points.

The Hammers are travelling after a week's rest to Denmark, as their Premier League game at the weekend against Newcastle United was postponed because of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's death.

Silkeborg vs West Ham United Prediction

West Ham have enjoyed a week's rest ahead of their trip to Denmark, which might come in hand. Silkeborg have just one win in their last five games but could put up a solid display at home.

Although the Hammers have been inconsistent this season, they looked sharp in their campaign opener against FCSB and will look to carry some of that momentum into this game.

Nonetheless, they have a few injury concerns, and with Silkeborg looking to secure their first win in the competition, a draw might ensue.

Prediction: Silkeborg 1-1 West Ham
