West Ham United are battling for UEFA Europa League survival as they play host to SC Freiburg on March 14.
The Hammers conceded late on in their Round of 16 first-leg 1-0 defeat in Germany last week and David Moyes' side need to react in the reverse fixture.
Moyes led his team to the UEFA Europa Conference League title last season but they need a win to avoid bowing out of this competition before the quarterfinals.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch it worldwide, kickoff times and the latest lineup news.

West Ham vs Freiburg lineups, team news
Moyes will make a late call on the fitness of left-back Emerson Palmieri and the hosts will go with their strongest available team.
With no FA Cup commitments this season, the Europa League remains as Moyes' sole route to a trophy in 2024.
West Ham predicted XI (4-3-3, right to left): Fabianski (GK) — Coufal, Mavropanos, Zouma, Palmieri — Soucek, Alvarez, Ward-Prowse — Kudus, Bowen, Paqueta.
West Ham subs (9): TBC
Freiburg will have Philipp Lienhart and Jordy Makengo available following injury but they could stick with an unchanged side from the first leg.
Freiburg predicted XI (4-5-1 right to left): Atubolu (GK) — Sildillia, Ginter, Gulde, Gunter — Doan, Eggestein, Hofler, Holer, Grifo — Sallai.
Freiburg subs (9): TBC
West Ham vs Freiburg prediction
With the pressure of needing a positive result, West Ham should bounce back and get the win they need to progress, and likely join Liverpool in the quarterfinals.
Moyes' side have lost just one of their six games at home since the start of 2024 and that is expected to tip the balance in their favour.
Prediction: West Ham 2-0 Freiburg
