West Ham United, Recent FormWith Arsenal sitting a clear 14 places above them in the table, West Ham United won't feel totally dejected with their 3-1 away defeat by them last time out. During that encounter they had 33% possession and had 8 attempts on goal with 4 on target, while their opponents hit 5 of their 16 shots on goal.
Having scored 4 goals and conceded 9 in their last 6 games, they will need to improve at both ends if they are to pick up more points from here on. They have recently found some good scoring form at home, hitting the net in 5 of their last 6 matches at London Stadium. They are in some turmoil defensively at the moment and have been unable to record a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
West Ham United will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form, having lost 4 league games in a row.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for West Ham United, Saïd Benrahma will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Brentford, Recent FormIt's fair to say Brentford will have been relatively pleased with a point from their last encounter with Tottenham Hotspur, a match that ended in a 2-2 draw. Their share of possession in that meeting was 39%, while racking up 9 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target. Tottenham Hotspur had 16 shots on goal with 8 on target.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 7 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 10 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. Scoring goals away from home is something they have consistently achieved of late, having notched up goals in 4 of their last 6 matches on their travels. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
Whilst they have only lost 1 of their last 6 games there will be concern over the amount of points dropped with 4 draws from those games. They've had an unusually high number of draws this season, with 8 draws in 16 league games.
Ivan Toney will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 5 goals in the last 6 league outings for Brentford.
It was not a positive ending for West Ham United last time they met Brentford in the league, with the game ending in a 2-0 defeat.
West Ham has lost the last 2 times they've faced Brentford in the league.
West Ham manager David Moyes has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Nayef Aguerd (Strain), Maxwel Cornet (Thigh), Gianluca Scamacca (Ankle) and Kurt Zouma (Knee) are all currently out of contention for this game.
