West Ham Recent Form: Last 5
Key Factors
Brentford is in a 'draw slump,' with 5 stalemates in their last 6 matches and a struggling finishing rate despite high xG (avg 1.55).
West Ham is fighting for Premier League survival, currently 17th and only 2 points above the relegation zone, providing peak psychological motivation.
Tactical contrast: Brentford's high possession/control vs. Nuno Espírito Santo's low-block and efficient counter-attacks via Jarrod Bowen and Crysencio Summerville.
Injuries & Absentees
Brentford's midfield and defense are significantly weakened with Vitaly Janelt, Rico Henry, and Jordan Henderson all major doubts. The loss of Fábio Carvalho and Antoni Milambo (both ACL) limits their creative depth. West Ham, conversely, has a nearly fully-fit squad, allowing Nuno to field his strongest transitional XI.
