Thomas Frank’s Brentford will be hoping to get their league campaign back on track this weekend after throwing away one-goal leads in their last two matches.
The Bees remain in a promising position at this stage after winning twice from five this term. But, it would be an alarm before making a Brentford vs West Ham prediction this weekend that they allowed another advantage to slip at Tottenham last Saturday.
It was almost an identical match against Spurs as it was against Man City seven days earlier, as Brentford went ahead within a minute.
However, they would ultimately end up on the losing side. Interestingly, that defeat now means that no side has dropped more points from winning positions than the Bees since the start of last season.
Questions are already being asked whether West Ham made the right decision to part company with David Moyes in favour of appointing Julen Lopetegui. The Hammers have been underwhelming across their matches this term, winning just once in their opening five fixtures.
Their performance in last Saturday’s 3-0 home defeat against Chelsea would be worth considering before making a Brentford vs West Ham prediction.
The Hammers failed to lay a glove on the Blues in the opening 45 minutes of that showdown, and they very rarely threatened in the final third despite ending the match with six shots on target. The defeat means that the Hammers have now started the season with three straight home losses for the first time.
Bet hereWest Ham faces a tough challenge, and their poor record against Brentford could continue.
The Hammers have struggled in their head-to-head matchups, with Brentford winning five out of six Premier League meetings, including three successive home wins.
Considering this history, Brentford is likely to maintain their dominance, and a home win for the Bees seems the most probable outcome.
Bryan Mbeumo has started the season excellently. He has scored four in five league appearances this term, and has been a productive out-ball for the Bees. The striker has previously netted three goals in five appearances against the Hammers and could be a solid pick to appear on the scoresheet once again.
