West Ham face Accrington Stanley in the 3rd Round of the EFL Cup this week and it is a game that fans will view with some trepidation.
The Hammers' recent performances will have neutrals viewing the tie as an opportunity for a cup upset, and Stanley will certainly relish the chance to be the first team to visit the London Stadium in a domestic cup competition.
Regardless of the opposition and the team's current malaise however, supporters will once again hope to overcome their League Cup hoodoo. The club sit in 10th place in the all-time League Cup table with 108 wins from 209 matches since the tournament's inception in 1960/61.
