Recent form
West Ham
West Ham's recent form has been concerning, with the Hammers struggling to find consistency in their performances. The team have managed just one win in their last six matches, suffering four defeats and securing a solitary draw. Their defensive frailties are particularly evident, having conceded 13 goals in this period and failing to keep a clean sheet in their last seven games. The Hammers' goal difference of -6 in these six matches highlights their struggles at both ends of the pitch. Notably, their match against Fulham was a high-scoring affair, ending 3-2 in West Ham's favour. Despite their poor run, West Ham have been involved in entertaining matches, with 67% of their recent games featuring over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring in 83% of them. However, their current 15th position in the league table underscores the urgent need for improvement if they are to climb away from the relegation zone.
Brentford
Brentford's recent form has been inconsistent, with two wins, one draw, and three losses in their last six matches. The Bees have struggled to maintain a clean sheet, going five games without one, which may be a concern for the defensive unit. Despite this, they've managed to score an impressive 1.5 goals per game on average, highlighted by a remarkable 5-0 away victory against Southampton. This high-scoring match stands out as a particularly impressive performance in an otherwise mixed run of results. Interestingly, Brentford have shown resilience against top teams, holding Manchester City to a 2-2 draw, but have also suffered disappointing losses, including a 1-0 defeat to Plymouth Argyle in the FA Cup. Their current 11th position in the league table reflects their inconsistent form, with an even split between under and over 2.5 goals in their recent matches.

Recent home/away form
West Ham
West Ham's recent home form has been inconsistent, with two wins, one draw, and three losses in their last six matches at the London Stadium. The Hammers have struggled defensively, failing to keep a clean sheet in this period and conceding a concerning average of 2.67 goals per game. There have been two particularly high-scoring matches, with West Ham suffering heavy 5-0 and 5-2 defeats against Liverpool and Arsenal respectively. On a more positive note, goals have been a regular feature in their home games, with 67% of matches seeing both teams score and over 2.5 goals. Despite their defensive woes, West Ham have managed to find the net in five out of six games, though their average of 1.33 goals scored per game hasn't been enough to offset their leaky defence.
Brentford
Brentford's recent away form has been a tale of two halves, with the Bees showing remarkable improvement in their last two outings after a challenging spell. They've broken a three-match losing streak on the road with back-to-back victories, including an impressive 5-0 thrashing of Southampton, which stands out as a particularly high-scoring affair. Their defensive solidity has also improved, keeping two clean sheets in their last three away matches. Despite their mid-table position, Brentford have been involved in some entertaining encounters, with 83% of their recent away games featuring over 2.5 goals. The team's ability to find the net consistently is evident, scoring in five out of six matches, although they've also shown vulnerability at the back, conceding in four of these fixtures.
