West Ham fullback Vladimir Coufal is ready to face his fellow Czechs tomorrow.

Ahead of their Europa League quarterfinal against Bayer Leverkusen, Coufal knows he could face-off with countrymen Patrik Schick and Matěj Kovář.

“They have a lot of strong players in their team, and it's not going to be an easy match," said Coufal to whufc.com.

“We're going to do everything we can to stop them, and I'm going to give the lads some insight to help them!

“Patrik Schick is a tremendous striker, and he was their hero in the last round. Adam Hložek has shown he can score from nothing, and I've had some banter with Matěj Kovář through text.

“If we weren't in the competition anymore I'd probably be cheering them on to win the whole thing, but we have a job to do and we're confident we can stop them.

“They're favourites to win the Bundesliga and the German Cup, but hopefully we can make sure that two trophies is all they're going to get this season."
