Hammers heads for top of table Dinamo

It could hardly be tougher for the Irons as they head for their first Europa League clash against Dinamo Zagreb on Thursday evening.

They are the most successful Croat club ever and are currently top of their league having taken 16 points from their first seven games.

With David Moyes hinting heavily that Mikey Antonio looks set to get a run-out and no doubt Nikola Vlasiic looking for a call-up against his old rivals from the days when he was at Hadjuk Split.

It may well be too that both Zouma and Areola will get their Hammers debuts in a game that could hardly be awaited with more interest.

And should the boss decide that he will play a game which sees us not concede Alex Kral could become an additional defensive midfelder in the line up perhaps at the expense of Fornals

Dinamo, as the most successful club in Croatian football, have won twenty-two Prva HNL titles, sixteen Croatian Cups and six Croatian Super Cups.

The club has spent its entire existence in top flight, having been members of the Yugoslav First League from 1946 to 1991, and then the Prva HNL since its foundation in 199.

Possible Hammers team: Areola; Coufal, Zouma, Diop, Cresswell, Rice, Soucek, Kral, Vlasic, Bowen, Antonio
