Preview
Blackburn and West Ham meet at Ewood Park, in a match for this stage of the Copa FA (5ta Ronda). There is no record of official head‑to‑heads between these two teams in the last 3 years. The last time they met, on 07‑05‑2011, the match ended with the final score: West Ham United (1‑1) Blackburn Rovers. Blackburn registers significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth special attention.

Analysis Blackburn

The home team comes to this stage of the Copa FA (5ta Ronda) after having eliminated: Oxford United and Newport County. This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses in away matches; against 4 wins, 7 draws and 4 losses at their stadium. In their last match, for the Championship, they got a home win against Fulham by (3‑0). In the last 10 home matches Blackburn has won 2, tied 5 and lost 3. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. They have conceded the first goal in 7 of their 15 matches, and have never been able to turn the score around.

Blackburn Rovers comes into this matchup very motivated after just beating Fulham, playing at home. The heroes of this last game were Marshall, Duffy and Graham. In this matchup against West Ham, coach Paul Lambert should be playing in a more defensive minded strategy, looking to get in front through counter attacks. It is important to highlight that most attacking plays are created from the right wing, using Ben Marshall, one of the team`s best players. For this matchup, they will be without Jason Lowe, Guthrie and Defouneso, how are all recovering from injuries.

Confirmed Lineup: Jason Steele, Adam Henley, Darragh Lenihan, Elliott Ward, Shane Duffy, Ben Marshall, Elliott Bennett, Hope Akpan, Chris Taylor, Craig Conway, Reece Brown.
Coach: T. Mowbray.

Analysis West Ham

The away team comes to this stage of the Copa FA (5ta Ronda) after havinf played in the previous rounds against: Liverpool and Wolverhampton Wanderers. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 7 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 19 goals scored and 18 conceded; against 6 wins, 6 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 23 goals scored and 17 conceded. In their last match, for the Premier League, they got an away tie against Norwich City by (2‑2). In the last 10 away matches West Ham has won 1, tied 5 and lost 4. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times but have turned the score around in 2.

West Ham is going through a rough patch in the season and has only 1 win in the last 7 matches. In this match, away from home, coach Slaven Bilic should play in a 4-3-3 formation, prioritising ball possession and organized attacks. Dimitri Payet is one of the men responsible for causing havoc in the opposition's defense, because he is the top scorer with 7 goals. Tomkins, Reid, O'Brien, Carrol, Sakho, Jenkinson, Lanzini and Henry are all hurt and won't be able to play in this match.

Confirmed Lineup: Darren Randolph, Aaron Cresswell, James Collins, Angelo Ogbonna, Victor Moses, Michail Antonio, Cheikhou Kouyaté, Mark Noble, Pedro Obiang, Dimitri Payet, Emmanuel Emenike.
Coach: D. Moyes.
