Preview
The hosts are top of the table with 2 wins from both their matches. West Ham beat Rapid Wien at home 2-0 on Matchday 2 to make it successive wins.
Rice and Benrahma scored in either side to keep the Hammers perfect record within their grasp.
Moyes’ men have won 4 of their last 5 matches across competitions and look a formidable unit.
On the other hand, Genk have lost their last 3 three matches including a 3-0 away loss to Dinamo Zagreb in the Europa League.
The Belgian side are woefully out of form and would do anything to gain a point let alone three at this point.
