West Ham United and Everton meet at Upton Park on Tuesday night in a replay of their FA Cup third-round tie.

The Hammers were moments away from claiming a win at Goodison Park at the start of the month before Romelu Lukaku's late goal earned the Toffees a 1-1 draw.

Sam Allardyce's side are struggling for form at the moment thanks to a winless run of five games. However, Roberto Martinez's Everton are experiencing an even worse spell with a six-match winless streak.

Allardyce missed his team's 1-1 draw with Swansea City in the Premier League on the weekend through illness, but the 60-year-old is expected to be back in the dugout tomorrow night.

Everton defeated West Ham 2-1 when they met on Merseyside in the Premier League last month as Leon Osman's strike 15 minutes from time made the difference.

Diafra Sakho is missing for the hosts with a back problem, while Alex Song could also be absent due to a virus. Osman, Darron Gibson and Tony Hibbert all remain sidelined for the visitors, who have no fresh injury concerns.
