Derby vs West Ham LIVE: FA Cup result and final score after Michail Antonio and Jarrod Bowen goals
Derby County 0-2 West Ham: A trip to Old Trafford awaits after the Hammers booked their place in the fifth round
West Ham booked a fifth-round FA Cup tie at boss David Moyes’ former club Manchester United with a comfortable 2-0 win at Derby.
Jarrod Bowen’s third goal in two games gave the Hammers a first-half lead and Michail Antonio headed home their second five minutes after break.
The Londoners made it back-to-back wins after beating Everton 2-0 to climb out of the Premier League’s bottom three nine days go and rarely needed to hit top gear as they halted League One side Derby’s 19-game unbeaten run.

FA Cup fifth round draw
There are seven Premier League teams already through to the fifth round of the FA Cup and the draw for that stage takes place this evening before kick off between Derby and West Ham.
Seven of nine possible Premier League sides are certain to be involved in the fifth round as Brighton, Leeds, Leicester, Manchester City, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Southampton all progressed through their fourth round ties.
Fulham clawed their way to a 1-1 draw with Sunderland and forced a replay whilst West Ham face Derby later on.
Man City will be the favourites to win the trophy they last lifted in 2019 but Erik ten Hag is determined to earn Man Utd silverware this season and will have his sights set on this one too.
David Moyes wants to build on Everton win
West Ham’s last outing saw them defeat Everton 2-0 in a Premier League relegation battle. Manager David Moyes hopes that victory will be the first in a good run for the Irons as the look to build momentum and hopefully avoid the drop.
“I’ve got to say it [Everton] was an important win for us and one that we were pleased to get,” said Moyes,
“The idea is to go again, try to build momentum, try to pick up on a really good result. We’ve had some okay performances which didn’t lead to results and I thought last week was an okay performance that did lead to a result.
“I’m looking to improve on both, I’m looking to improve on scoring more goals wherever we possibly can and building on the clean sheet too, which was really important for us.”
Pre-match thoughts of Paul Warne
Derby County boss, Paul Warne, spoke about tonight’s FA Cup match against West Ham and what it means to take on a Premier League team in this competition.
“When we played that first FA Cup game this season at Torquay United, I said to the lads that it wasn’t about that tie, it’s about the ones that you could get in the later rounds,” said Warne.
“If you can get a Premier League team, especially at home, then you can create a memory for yourself and for your family. I was fortunate enough to play at Anfield in the FA Cup in my career and it’s something that my mum still remembers to this day, which means a lot to me.
“I know the importance of it and I appreciate a couple of our lads have played in the Premier League so it won’t be such a big thing for them, possibly, but for the younger lads it is.
“It is under the lights at Pride Park, on TV and on a Monday night - the lads can just go out and enjoy it and that’s what I want them to do.”
Liverpool have got worse since the World Cup, says Andy Robertson
Andy Robertson admitted Liverpool have got worse since the season resumed following the World Cup.
The Reds have won just once in six matches in all competitions since the turn of the year and were dumped out of the FA Cup by Brighton on Sunday.
Back at the scene of a 3-0 Premier League thumping a fortnight ago – which Jurgen Klopp described as the worst of his managerial career – Liverpool looked destined for at least a replay after Lewis Dunk’s lucky strike cancelled out Harvey Elliott’s opener.
But Japan star Kaoru Mitoma volleyed a dramatic winner to seal a 2-1 victory and knock the holders out.

Derby vs West Ham
Hello and welcome to The Independent’s coverage of tonight’s FA Cup action as Derby County and West Ham United close out this weekend’s fourth round.
League One’s Derby County are hoping to cause an upset when they take on the Premier League side and come into the match in as good a form as possible. They have won their last six matches across all competitions and are unbeaten in 19 games.
Although in the third tier Derby have already faced Premier League opponents this season having held Liverpool to a goalless draw in the third round of the Carabao Cup - they lost the penalty shootout - and manager Paul Warne will feel confident of giving West Ham a good game tonight.
The Hammers are expected to field a weakened side as they focus on avoiding relegation from the Premier League. Manager David Moyes says his hopes are always to win a trophy each season but his side are just a point and two places outside the drop zone and need to focus on the league.
We’ll have updates from all the team news and build-up to kick off as well as the FA Cup fifth round draw itself which is scheduled for 7pm live on BBC One.
