Derby County will host West Ham United at Pride Park on Monday (January 30) in the fourth round of the FA Cup.
The hosts opened their campaign with a 2-2 draw against Torquay United before thrashing them 5-0 in the replay. Derby then beat Newport County 2-1 in the second round before beating Barnsley 3-0, with three players getting on the scoresheet.
West Ham, meanwhile, have endured a rather difficult league campaign, finding themselves just outside the drop zone and will hope for better luck in the domestic cup. They beat Brentford 1-0 in the previous round, with Said Benrahma coming off the bench to score the winner.
Trending
The visitors beat Kidderminster Harriers 2-1 at this stage of the competition last season and will hope for a similar result again.
