FA Cup Football Stockport vs West Ham Preview And Prediction

Stockport vs West Ham Utd, 8pm 

With the draws for the 4th and 5th round taking place just before kick off this could be incentive for an upset here, we think West Ham will ring the changes but with strength in-depth will still be too much for Stockport to deal with.

Having collected 26 points from 17 Premier League matches this season, David Moyes will feel that he is well on his way to earning a long-term contract with West Ham.

However, the Scot is aware that an extended run in the FA Cup will strengthen his case, particularly with the club having reached just one final in four decades.

West Ham’s squad is two players lighter ahead of this contest after Sebastien Haller and Robert Snodgrass left for Ajax and West Bromwich Albion respectively.

Nevertheless, Moyes will feel that this is an opportunity to hand chances to some of the club’s fringe players as he contemplates his options in the transfer market.

With successive clean sheets being recorded at Southampton and Everton, there will be a high level of expectation that a third shutout in a row will come on Monday night.

Stockport, who are also on a three-match unbeaten run, will have other ideas as they bid to write another chapter in their cup history.

Almost 24 years have passed since County reached the semi-finals of the League Cup, a run which coincidentally saw West Ham defeated on their way to the last four.

Prediction: BTTS @1/1
