Oxford United vs West Ham odds: Defence tipped for another clean sheet and comfortable win

There are plenty of reasons to smile about if you are a West Ham fan.

They are yet to concede a goal since playing away to Watford last month and have tipped themselves to fight for a top six place after beating Man United 2-0 at home.

Another cup win will help fringe players get the game time they need and help the Irons on their way to a decent cup run too.

We spoke with Andy Ha before the match:

Recommended bets:

  • West Ham to win 2-0 - 13/2
  • West Ham clean sheet - 13/10

Win, lose or draw?

West Ham are on a roll, and with Manuel Pellegrini always one to take cup competitions seriously, the Hammers should progress here at 4/9 . A 2-0 win to the Hammers at 13/2 .

First goalscorer?

Summer signing Albian Ajeti should lead the line once again having started at Newport in the last round. I'd fancy him to score his first goal for the club.

First card?

Carlos Sanchez.

Who is on penalties?

With Mark Noble likely to be rested, spot kick duties could fall to someone like Robert Snodgrass or Felipe Anderson.

Will you keep a clean sheet?

West Ham should keep their good run of clean sheets going at the Kassam Stadium and 13/10 are pretty decent odds.
