Preview
West Bromwich Albion and Derby County meet at The Hawthorns, in a match for this stage of the FA Cup (3rd Round). The only recent head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 27‑07‑2013, and ended in a (0‑2) win by West Bromwich Albion. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, since Derby County presents significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis West Bromwich

The home team plays its first match in this edition of the FA Cup with the intention of using the home advantage to get a positive result. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses in away matches; against 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses at their stadium. In their last match, for the Premier League, they got a home win against Hull City by (3‑1). In the last 10 home matches West Bromwich Albion has won 5, tied 2 and lost 3. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 8 times and have only turned the score around in 2.

West Brom heads into this match motivated after a 3-1 home win, against Hull, as Brunt, McAuley and Morrison scored their goals. They usually play in a traditional 4-3-3 formation, prioritising a fast paced match, progressing through the wings. In this formation, they will have Rondon, Chadli and Phillips as their forwards. As they are a team that struggles, they should lower their lines and play in their own half, waiting for their opponent to make mistakes They should have all their players available.

Confirmed Lineup: Boaz Myhill, Jonas Olsson, Craig Dawson, Brendan Galloway, James McClean, Claudio Yacob, Matt Phillips, Salomón Rondón.
Coach: G. McAuley, J. Morrison, D. Fletcher, S. Bruce.

Analysis Derby

The team plays its first match in this edition of the FA Cup with the intention of getting a positive away result. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 17 goals scored and 14 conceded; against 7 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 14 goals scored and 9 conceded. In their last match, for the Championship, they got an away loss against Norwich City by (3‑0). In the last 10 away matches Derby County has won 4, tied 3 and lost 3. Defensive consistency has been one of their best features, as they have only conceded goals in 3 of the last 10 matches, and their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In the last 11 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 6 of their 11 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Derby heads into this match with low motivation after a 3-0 loss away from home, against Norwich. Just like their opponent, they use a traditional 4-3-3 formation, with Ince, Vydra and Russell as their forwards. Playing away from home, we expect Derby to play with a defensive posture, trying not to give space to their opponent. Their coach will be without Butterfield and Hughes, who are suspended.

Confirmed Lineup: Scott Carson, Jamie Hanson, Chris Baird, Jason Shackell, Craig Bryson, Bradley Johnson, Julien De Sart, Tom Ince, Darren Bent, Abdoul Camara.
Coach: R. Keogh, J. Eustace.
