West Ham manager David Moyes wants his side's recent Premier League revival to act as a catalyst for another deep run in Europe this season.
The Hammers play German side Freiburg in the first leg of a Europa League last-16 tie on Thursday.
Back-to-back wins have lifted Moyes' side to seventh in the league, with the Scot targeting a European finish.
"I sense we're getting back to where we should be," said Moyes, who won the Europa Conference League last year.
The Hammers also reached the Europa League semi-finals in the 2021-22 season and Moyes has challenged his side to ensure a fourth successive season in continental competition.
