What is at stake?

Derby will be hoping to make it into the fifth round for the first time since the 2019/20 season, and while they will be underdogs, West Ham will need to be wary of their threat.

Paul Warne’s side have won their last five matches in League One, a run which has helped them to climb up to fourth in the table, and they are now looking good for at least a play-off place.

The club’s Irish contingent have played a big part in their strong form, with Hourihane and McGoldrick both being among the goals in recent weeks, while the versatile Knight has nailed down a central midfield spot.

West Ham.

West Ham manager David Moyes has been speaking recently about his desire to win a first major trophy in his career, and if he wishes to guide West Ham to success in the FA Cup this year, he will have to get past a potential banana skin on Monday night.

The Hammers currently find themselves in 16th place in the league, and a cup run would provide a nice distraction for their fans, who also have a Europa Conference League last-16 tie to look forward to.

Tonight’s match will be preceded by the draw for the FA Cup fifth round. More information on that here.
