West Ham United take on Brentford in the Premier League tomorrow night at the London Stadium.

Brentford travel to East London to take on West Ham, and boy do we need a big three Premier League points tomorrow.

Hammers boss David Moyes is under heavy pressure in his role at the London Stadium right now, with recent reports claiming that the owners could even be prepared to sack him before the end of the season.

The Scot will know exactly how important tomorrow night’s clash with Brentford is, and nothing less than three points will do.

Brentford have some kind of hoodoo over us – we’ve never beaten them in the league since they got promoted to the top flight, and we haven’t won a league game against them since 1993!

Now West Ham may have a great chance to end that run…

Brentford missing six players for West Ham clash

Premier Injuries claim that Joshua Dasilva, Rico Henry, Aaron Hickey, Kevin Schade, Ethan Pinnock and Bryan Mbeumo will all be unavailable for the Bees tomorrow night.

Now the onus will be on the Hammers to take the game to the west London outfit.

We have the players needed to cause Thomas Frank’s side all sorts of problems, and Moyes absolutely has to set up his team on the front foot.

I expect that the Scot will revert to type, and instruct his players to sit back and entice Brentford onto them, with the hope of hitting Frank’s men on the counter or nicking something from a set-piece.

If Moyes does do that, it may well be the final nail in his coffin, because with Brentford missing so many key players, West Ham should have a really strong chance to beat them.
