Brentford vs West Ham Prediction

Brentford Form

In the previous three games, Brentford drew 2-2 with Everton, lost 0-0 against Fulham and 2-1 against Manchester United. Brentford are without a win in their last six Premier League matches on home soil, which produced a record of four draws and two defeats, in which they conceded nine and scored five goals.

Most people had Brentford down among favourites for relegation, but they have surpassed all expectations. With the season coming to an end, they look destined for another season in the Premier League.

West Ham Form

West Ham are unbeaten in their last three matches, first beating Wolverhampton by 4-0. This was followed by a 0-0 with Crystal Palace and a 2-1 win against Everton. West Ham claimed two wins against one draw and three defeats in their last six away matches in the Premier League. The scoreline from these matches reads ten goals conceded and seven scored.

They went into the season as candidates for the drop, and unfortunately for The Irons, they have lived up to expectations. As the season draws to a close, they are still in with a chance of escaping relegation, though.

While it might not be a big surprise to see West Ham steal a good result at Gtech Community Stadium, form nevertheless looks better for Brentford. They get the nod this coming Saturday.

Brentford took 29 points from their last 18 encounters with teams from the bottom half of the Premier League table. This amounts to eight wins after scoring 31 times and conceding 25. West Ham claimed one wins and ten points from their last 18 encounters with teams in the top half of the Premier League, while scoring 16 goals to 36 against. Brentford claimed 13 wins, nine draws as well as 12 defeats in the Premier League this season. West Ham are looking at nine wins, nine draws and 16 defeats in the Premier League.
