West Ham have decked out an open-top bus ahead of their Europa Conference League final tonight against Fiorentina.
Both sides could end a 50-year-long wait for a European trophy, with the Hammers set to play in the club's third ever European final, after they won the Cup Winners Cup back in 1965.
It is a momentous day for the club, who tonight, can also undo the heartache of last season's European campaign where they came narrowly close to securing a berth in the Europa League final, but were beaten by Eintracht Frankfurt in the semis.
Fans of the London club have been arriving in Prague to celebrate the occasion, and while they have only been allocated 5,000 tickets to the showpiece event, many have flocked to the Czech capital, celebrating in the Old Town's square.
Should David Moyes' side win tonight against Fiorentina, who will be looking to avenge the dismay of their recent Coppa Italia defeat by Inter Milan, the celebrations will continue back home in London and it appears West Ham have already been preparing for that eventuality.
