West Ham United go up against division three side Burton Albion in Round 4 of the FA Cup. With the Hammers battling relegation in the EPL, will they prioritise this tournament less, and how will that affect the outcome of this game? See our match prediction below.
The grass is steadily getting greener for West Ham as they fight hard to avoid going down to the Championship. The Hammers just drew Carrick’s unstoppable Manchester United, earning West Ham five unbeaten games in their last six. And that has been their best run all season. In that six-game span, West Ham beat QPR, Tottenham, Sunderland, and Burnley, only losing to Chelsea in the 90th minute.
This West Ham side should feel confident going up against a team with far lesser quality. This is especially true as Burton faces a serious slump in League One. The Brewers drew their last game to Porto Vale, which now makes it eight winless games in their last nine league matches.
Interestingly, The Brewers too are in the relegation zone, and might have to prioritise this game less if they hope to stay a third division team by the end of the season.
