West Ham's Champions League dream is well and truly ON if they beat Lyon in tonight's huge Europa League showdown... their top-four push now looks a stretch but they can follow the Sevilla blueprint and get in through the back door instead

West Ham have been on quite a rollercoaster ride this season. Just three months ago, they were speeding along to an unlikely top-four place - with Arsenal, Tottenham and Manchester United in the rear-view mirror.

But there have been some bumps in the road since that 2-0 win over Norwich on January 22nd, that lifted them into fourth spot. David Moyes' side have broken down and can't seem to jumpstart themselves back into the race for Champions League football. That path seems blocked off - though it doesn't mean they can't take a diversion to reach their final destination.
