West Ham vs Brentford Match Preview and Prediction
West Ham vs Brentford: The last match of Matchday No. 26 takes place at London Stadium on Monday night, with West Ham United hosting Brentford. The Hammers’ poor play continued last weekend as they lost 0-2 against Nottingham Forest, putting on yet another dismal performance. It was David Moyes’ team’s third straight Premier League defeat.
The Hammers have now lost their last eight games in all competitions. In the closing third of the last three league games, they appeared to be without any bite. They’ve given up eleven goals without a response in the process, which says it all. It is quite unrealistic to expect them to begin producing right away.
Recently, Brentford hasn’t exactly been putting out their best effort. Over the past 13 games across all competitions, the Bees have only won two. However, head coach Thomas Frank is at least pleased with his team’s performance in the previous game. On Tuesday night, Brentford narrowly lost 0-1 on the road against Manchester City, despite pushing the reigning champions to their limits.
West Ham vs Brentford: Betting Analysis
In their last three Premier League losses, West Ham have given up eleven goals in a row. The Hammers have lost their last eight games in all competitions. The last six times the two teams faced off, Brentford prevailed five of those times.
In a thrilling rematch that took place at Gtech Community Stadium in November of last year, Brentford emerged victorious, 3-2. In their last six encounters with West Ham, the Bees have won five of them. In the previous seven meetings, neither team has scored more than twice.
West Ham vs Brentford: Head-to-Head
Who will win the match between West Ham and Brentford?
Brentford have been West Ham’s difficult rivals recently. The Hammers have lost five of the last six matches against the Bees. West Ham has looked bad in recent weeks, so we expect the same on Monday night in London.
The past three losses to Manchester United, Arsenal, and Nottingham Forest saw David Moyes’ team lose eleven unanswered goals. The opponents outplayed them in all three games. However, Yoanne Wissa’s return from the CAF Africa Cup of Nations improves Thomas Frank’s roster.
We think Brentford and West Ham United should have enough chances to score, but it’s impossible to tell. Let’s see, but we expect a draw. So, we have a hard-fought 1-1 draw after 90 minutes.
Our Prediction: Draw or Both Teams to Score
