Stockport v West Ham United live stream, BT Sport, Monday 11 January, 8.00pm GMT
West Ham will be looking to make it beyond the third round of the FA Cup for the sixth time in seven seasons when they face Stockport on Monday.
David Moyes’ men ground out a 1-0 victory over Everton last time out to keep their place in the top half of the table. Some tipped the Hammers for relegation this term, and while there is still a long way to go before the final table is decided, it is fair to say they have exceeded many people’s expectations so far.
Moyes has done an excellent job, making West Ham tougher to play against and more efficient in attack. The Scot was not the most glamorous of choices to succeed Manuel Pellegrini last term, but West Ham’s owners have been justified in their decision to bring him back to the club. A cup run should be a key objective for the Hammers this season given their relatively comfortable position in the Premier League.
Stockport are pushing for promotion to League Two this season, as they attempt to return to the Football League after dropping out of it in 2010. County began their journey in this season’s FA Cup in the fourth qualifying round, and have beaten Chesterfield, Rochdale and Yeovil to make it this far. The furthest Stockport have ever gone in the FA Cup is the fifth round, a stage they graced in 1934/35, 1949/50 and 2000/01.
West Ham will again have to make do with Arthur Masuaku and Ryan Fredericks, while Lukasz Fabianski is expected to miss out with a thigh injury.
Moyes will be tempted to shuffle his pack ahead of Saturday’s clash with Burnley, with Andriy Yarmolenko, Ben Johnson, Robert Snodgrass, Issa Diop and Mark Noble among those in contention for a place in the starting XI. Michail Antonio could also be selected from the first whistle after coming off the bench in the victory over Everton last time out.
Kick-off is at 8pm GMT and the game is being shown on BT Sport 1 in the UK. See below for watching details where you are.
Use a VPN to watch a Stockport v West Ham United live stream from outside your country
If you’re on holiday or just simply out of the country, your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows exactly where you are from your IP address. Your access to the game will be automatically blocked, which is annoying if you’ve paid a subscription fee and don't want to use an illegal, buffering stream that makes you miss another Jose Mourinho tantrum. And that's where we recommend ExpressVPN (more on which below).
All you need to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to get beyond such aggravations (assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs). A VPN creates a private connection between your device and the internet, meaning suppliers can’t work out where you are and what you’re doing. The info going to and from is entirely encrypted.
