Barcelona were held to a 0-0 home draw by Galatasaray in the first leg of their Europa League last-16 tie on Thursday as Scottish side Rangers kept their momentum in the competition going with a 3-0 win over Red Star Belgrade.

Barca bombarded Galatasaray with 14 goal attempts against only three from the Turkish side, who were indebted to 23-year-old Spanish goalkeeper Inaki Pena for several fine saves.

Galatasaray also made good chances with winger Kerem Akturkoglu a constant threat to the Barca defence with his pace and range of skills.

Sevilla vs West Ham

David Moyes spoke about West Ham’s progress in Europe this season and says he wants his team to qualify for the European competitions on a regular basis. Moyes said:

I want this to be the new West Ham. This time last year I felt Europe was a possibility. Prior to that, we were about avoiding relegation, that was the job.

"To think of where we have come in one year, from mid-table to challenging for Europe, now we’re talking in terms of Champions League football. We have moved a big amount in a short space of time.

"We’ve really enjoyed our European games, which have been great and a big step up for all the players. We’ve moved a big mountain already in a really short time, so we have to be careful. And tomorrow is a completely different level football for all the players. Many of boys have played in the Champions League before ... but as a club and as a group, we’ve got to say this is all completely new."

David Moyes wants European qualification to be regular for ‘new West Ham’

David Moyes has vowed to continue proving the doubters wrong by keeping West Ham among Europe’s elite.

Moyes has upset the odds since returning to the Hammers for a second stint, after his first spell in charge ended when his short-term contract expired.

Since his comeback he has turned West Ham from relegation candidates to top-four challengers, and on Thursday night the club will be on their biggest European stage in 41 years when they face Sevilla in the Europa League last 16.

Sevilla vs West Ham

West Ham’s meeting with Sevilla will be their first against Spanish opposition in European competition in over 40 years, since they won 6-4 on aggregate against Real Madrid Castilla in the first round of the 1980-81 Cup Winners’ Cup.

Sevilla have progressed from 29 of their last 31 knockout stage ties in the UEFA Cup/Europa League (94%), progressing from all three ties against English opponents during this run (2006/07 quarter-final vs Spurs, 2019-20 quarter-final vs Wolves, 2019-20 semi-final vs Manchester United).

Sevilla have won this competition more that any other team and midfielder, Fernando, spoke about how his side is different to most clubs due to the respect they give the Europa League. He said:

Sevilla is a club that is well established [in the Europa League]; no other club has won more titles. And every time we play, we play differently because the club and the fans convey that [the importance of the Europa League] to the players. It’s a trophy that everyone wants to win and Sevilla is different from the other teams.”

West Ham’s opponents Sevilla know all about the competition having lifted the trophy five times, most recently in 202 when they defeated Manchester United in a penalty shootout. They are also second in La Liga behind Real Madrid.

"They’ve won it six times and have done very well, this season, but I also see it as a great chance to play one of the best teams in European football," said manager David Moyes. "I feel this is where the group of players should be"
