Videos of the incident have gone viral on social media where clashes between supporters are seen between fans of both teams in the Czech capital ahead of the game.

Talking about the fixture, West Ham and David Moyes have an opportunity to finish a rather disappointing season a high and further end the club’s European trophy draught since 1965. Talking about the match, David Moyes said, "I think, what does it mean to West Ham to be in a European final? I think if we said this at the start of the season, people wouldn’t have believed it.

"It’s a big achievement to get through to a European final. It’s not easy to get all the way through and we’ve been competitive. It’s a great achievement for all the players and the next part is to see if we can go on and win it."
