The Hammers head to Pride Park for a fourth-round FA Cup tie tonight against a Derby side desperate to cause an upset in this League One-plays-Premier League clash. The Rams needed a replay to down Torquay in the first round but can this time attempt the role of giant-killers in front of the nation.
West Ham secured a vital win in their fight against relegation last time out and will fancy a cup run to improve what has been a fairly draining season, leaving David Moyes on the brink of the sack on occasion. However, they actually come into this game with only one defeat in four.
Derby are flying high in their promotion bid and last tasted defeat when edged out of the Carabao Cup by Liverpool in November. Follow Derby vs West Ham LIVE via Standard Sport’s match blog, featuring expert analysis from Simon Collings at the ground!
