Burton vs West Ham prediction
As West Ham is two divisions above Burton, it is sure to result in a victory over the Hammers. I will go for a 4-1 win for Nuno Espirito Santo's side. However, there have been shocks in the FA Cup this season; Macclesfield of the National League North did beat the holders, Crystal Palace.
