FA Cup History

West Ham have been in the FA Cup Final four times, and have won three.
Liverpool have been in twelve finals and won six.
Only three teams who have been in four or more finals have a better record in the finals. (See Link) One of those teams The Wanderers no longer exist. Another, Blackburn Rovers, hasn't been back since 1960. Leaving only a hated rival, Tottenham Hotspur, as having a better record than West Ham. This points to history being on West Ham's side. I'm hoping we see a 2-1 vicotry. Here is the historical record of West Ham in the FA Cup, from the fabled White Horse game to our most recent win (the last time a non-premier league team won the Cup).
