UEFA have banned West Ham fans from attending the upcoming Europa League group game against Rapid Wien

A section of West Ham's travelling support were involved in crowd disturbances against Genk in Belgium on November 4.

The match finished 2-2 and the Hammers were subsequently charged under Article 16(2)(h) of the UEFA Disciplinary Regulations relating to crowd disturbances and Article 16(2)(b) due to objects being thrown by the away fans.

As a result, the UEFA Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body announced they cannot take any supporters to Austria when they face Rapid Wien on November 25. 

David Moyes' team top Group H with 10 points from their opening four games, meaning a point in Vienna would be enough to secure progress to the knockout stage.

West Ham face second-placed Dinamo Zagreb in their final Group H match on December 9.
