90min - Etherington bursts down the left. He fires in a ball across the box but no one can get to the back post to meet it. Three minutes of added time will be played.
87min - Coventry are applying late pressure. A short corner comes to nothing and the visitors can regroup.
84min - Danny Gabbidon comes on to replace Ferdinand ,who limps away clutching his hamstring.
81min - Ferdinand is down for treatment. The players come to the side of the pitch for some late instruction before the closing stages.
76min - Both teams are going for it. The ball falls to the feet of McCartney on the right of goal but his left-foot shot flashes wide.
71min - GOAL - Luis Boa Morte scores after his left-foot shot is deflected beyond Marshall.
70min - Best is off to be replaced by Kevin Kyle. West Ham United have 20 minutes to rescue their cup dream.
68min - GOAL - Osbourne's cross into the box sees Tabb connect with a diving header at the back post to score beyond Wright.
63min - Spector goes into the book for a foul. The atmosphere is hotting up as both sides sense the chance for victory.
61min - Mifsud had the ball in the net but it is offside. Mark Noble goes off to be replaced by John Pantsil on his first appearance of the season.
58min - Cole rises highest to meet an Etherington corner but his header flies wide.
55min - A terrific move by Curbishley's men sees Spector through and with a chance on goal, only for the offside flag to be raised. There are 23,968 fans at the Ricoh Arena tonight, with nearly 4,500 visiting supporters.
53min - Both sides have stepped up their attacking intent. Etherington in particular is seeing a lot of the ball. Leon Best then gets a half-chance at the other end but cannot keep his shot down.
49min - Tabb gets free on the right of goal but McCartney does well to put him off his shot. A swift counter sees the visitors win a corner. Etherington finds Bowyer on the edge of the box but the shot goes over high and wide.
47min - Cole goes down when running through towards goal but the referee sees nothing wrong.
46min - A change with Jonathan Spector on for Mullins. The US international goes straight into the central midfield role. For Coventry, Robbie Simpson is introduced for Julian Gray.
Half-time - A competitive first half is brought to a close by Rob Styles, having played two minutes of added time. Coventry have more than held their own, particularly on the break, and Curbishley will expect better after the interval.
43min - Bowyer is fouled by Isaac Osbourne. It is a good chance to put pressure on the Coventry defence but Noble's free-kick 25 yards to the left of goal comes to nothing when Cole is penalised for a foul.
41min - Hall surges forward for Coventry but Neill reads the danger well and wins back possession.
40min - A swift counterattack by Curbishley's side but the move breaks down when Etherington is well placed on the left wing.
33min - Boa Morte races away on goal from Ben Turner. He appears to have been fouled but the referee waves away the appeal. Lucas Neill is booked seconds later for dissent.
29min - The tireless Noble has a swing at McCartney's ball into the box but cannot send it goalwards. Straight up the other end where Ferdinand concedes a corner, which Cole then clears for another from the other side. As Bubbles rings out again, the visitors ride out the danger.
23min - Chances at either end. First Noble just fails to get to a McCartney low cross into the six-yard box before Mifsud leads the charge at the other end. The attack breaks down when Marcus Hall loops a shot over from a corner.
20min - Neill finds Cole in the box but the striker cannot get any power or direction on the header.
16min - George McCartney is shown a yellow card for a foul on Michael Mifsud as the Malta striker broke free on the right-wing. Coventry cannot make the free-kick count although another set-piece is awarded for a foul by Hayden Mullins. From that, Julian Gray tests Wright with a header but the No21 makes a comfortable save.
12min - Lee Bowyer and Luis Boa Morte are both upended. From the resulting central set-piece, 25 yards out, Mark Noble fires over the crossbar.
9min - Arjan De Zeeuw heads wide from a free-kick. It was never troubling Richard Wright.
6min - Neither side has settled yet, with possession switching back and forth. Matthew Upson has tried to find Cole with a couple of raking passes but they have come to nothing.
1min - Luis Boa Morte and Mark Noble get us under way. The early signs are that Boa Morte will support Carlton Cole in attack in a 4-4-2 formation.
Kick-off
7.44pm - Lucas Neill leads out the visitors, wearing the change strip of white shirts, claret shorts and claret socks. Coventry are in their traditional all sky-blue kit.
7.37pm - The players have returned down the tunnel. Only the West Ham United substitutes remain warming-up in front of the massed ranks of more than 4,000 travelling fans.
7.23pm - Coventry manager Iain Dowie is out on the pitch with the Coventry players. Among them is Elliott Ward, a substitute tonight after passing a late fitness test, who reserved special mention for his former club in the matchday programme. "West Ham is a great club and they like to play football in the right way," he said. "I loved playing there."
7.12pm - The team are out on the pitch warming up on a clear but mild evening at the Ricoh Arena. Alan Curbishley has stuck with seven of the side that drew 0-0 at Portsmouth on Saturday. The changes are Richard Wright in for Robert Green, Anton Ferdinand for Danny Gabbidon, Lee Boywer for Nolberto Solano and Matthew Etherington for Craig Bellamy. Solano, like Henri Camara, is cup-tied.
