West Ham take on Derby in the fourth round of the FA Cup in the East Midlands this evening.

The Hammers have been in terrible form in the Premier League, so a good result in the FA Cup tonight will be a huge boost for David Moyes and his players.

Derby will be no pushovers though. Paul Warne is doing a terrific job at Pride Park and his Rams side are currently sitting in fourth spot in the League One table, having not lost a league match since October.

The Hammers players will definitely have to be at their very best against Derby tonight…

West Ham starting lineup vs Derby County

David Moyes has opted for a strong starting XI to take on Derby at Pride Park tonight, although he has made six changes to the team that beat Everton last weekend.

Noting less than a convincing performance, a win and progression into the fifth round will do for the Hammers.

Tonight will be a big opportunity for the likes of Downes and Emerson to impress the manager.

I strongly believe that we’ll win this one tonight. That isn’t to say that the West Ham players won’t need to be 100 per cent on their games, because they absolutely do need to be.

I think that the West Ham starting lineup selected by Moyes has more than enough about it to get the job done.

Let’s just hope that the boys are up to the task.
