In my opinion Derby County have really good chances to avoid loss in today's match up.

Obviously, now we have two levels difference between both teams - Derby plays in League One, West Ham in Premier League, but Derby have good chances to get promotion into Championship, West Ham is just above relegation zone.

For hosts it's like free hit game because they don't have any pressure on their shoulders. Team is full of confidence - they won last 6 matches in a row and didn't lost since late October. Also they don't have squad problems - two key midfielders Sibley and Cashin are available (both missed last two matches). I expect strong support from the crowd. Everyone wants to face team from Premier League under the lights front of TV cameras. Derby at home didn't lost in 11 of 13 home league matches and scored 25 goals in the process.

FA Cup for sure is not West Ham priority at the moment. Their main goal is to avoid relegation, but they are only one point above red zone. West Ham today have serious squad problems in attack - their three strikers Ings, Scamacca and Cornet are unavailable today. Hammers in current season failed to win in 9 of 10 away league matches and scored only 6 goals in the process. Today I expect problems with goalscoring as well.

This is real 'banana skin' game for West Ham. Derby is in great form, big crowd on their stadium and huge motivation to win. West Ham have squad problems, out of form and their motivation is under big question mark. I see strong value on home side here.

在我看来，德比郡有很大的机会在今天的比赛中避免输球。

显然，现在我们两队之间有两个等级的差距——德比在英甲，西汉姆在英超，但是德比有很好的机会升级到英冠，西汉姆只是在降级区之上。

对于主持人来说，这就像一个免费的游戏，因为他们肩上没有任何压力。球队充满信心——他们在过去的6场比赛中取得了连胜，而且自10月下旬以来没有输球。他们也没有阵容问题——两名关键中场西布里和卡辛缺阵(他们都错过了最近两场比赛)。我希望得到群众的大力支持。每个人都想在电视摄像机前的灯光下面对英超球队。德比在13场主场比赛中有11场没有输球，并在比赛中打入25球。

足总杯肯定不是西汉姆联目前的首要任务。他们的主要目标是保级，但他们只比红区高出一分。今天西汉姆联在进攻端出现了严重的问题——他们的三名前锋英斯、斯卡甲和科内今天缺阵。在本赛季的10场客场比赛中，铁锤帮有9场没能赢球，而且只进了6个球。今天我预计进球也会有问题。

这是西汉姆联队真正的“香蕉皮”比赛。德比的状态很好，球场上有很多人，他们有巨大的动力去赢球。西汉姆联队有阵容问题，状态不佳，他们的动力是个大问号。我认为国内市场有很强的价值。
