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.
The visitors beat Kidderminster Harriers 2-1 at this stage of the competition last season and will hope for a similar result again.

Derby County vs West Ham Prediction
Derby are on a brilliant six-game winning streak and are unbeaten in their last 14 games across competitions. They have won their last five home games, and the trend should continue.
West Ham, meanwhile, have won two of their last three games after going winless in six. The sheer gulf in class and quality between the two teams should see the visitors come out on top.

Derby County vs West Ham Team News
Barring any injury issues, Warne may be prepared to name the Derby XI which started at Vale Park on January 24.
James Collins is an alternative in attack to David McGoldrick, although the extra recovery time should lead to the 35-year-old retaining his place in the team.
Everton loanee Lewis Dobbin will also come into contention after providing an assist as a substitute last time out, as well as starting three of the four previous games in this competition this campaign.
With Danny Ings and Gianluca Scamacca unavailable, Michail Antonio should lead the line for West Ham, despite speculation regarding a potential exit.
Second-choice goalkeeper Alphonse Areola is in line to feature between the sticks, but Moyes may prefer to name a similar side to the Everton match as he looks for some continuity.
Ben Johnson and Tomas Soucek will come under consideration for recalls, particularly the latter if Declan Rice is handed a rest.
