David Moyes is seeking his second win in a row as West Ham boss as the Hammers travel to Gillingham in the FA Cup third round.
Moyes has had an immediate impact on the relegation-threatened Hammers as they thrashed Bournemouth 4-0 at the weekend, and the east London club will be confident of another victory to reach the fourth round of the cup.
Date: Sunday, January 5th, 2020.
Venue: Priestfield Stadium, Gillingham, Kent.
Kick-off time: 6:16pm GMT.
Prediction: Gillingham 0-2 West Ham
The Gills sit 11th in League One, and are unbeaten in their last six games in all competitions. The Hammers will be made to work for a result, but should get one.
