West Ham vs Brentford Stats-Based Bet Builder Tips: Thiago to make the difference in the capital

Nuno Espirito Santo takes charge of West Ham for the third time on Monday (20:00 BST, Sky Sports Main Event) as he searches for his first win as Hammers manager, but they may fail to live up to their favourites tag when Brentford pay them a visit at London Stadium.

The Bees have picked up some solid results as they transition to the Keith Andrews era, and another three points would move them further clear of the Premier League relegation zone. Read on for my West Ham vs Brentford Stats-Based Bet Builder Tips...

Brentford or draw double chance

West Ham’s only win of the season so far came against struggling Nottingham Forest, and they are unlikely to add to that against Brentford on Monday.

Keith Andrews’ side have avoided defeat in five of their nine competitive matches this season, picking up impressive results against Aston Villa, Bournemouth, Chelsea, and Manchester United.

They have lost just one of their last five meetings with West Ham, who haven’t won a home game since February.

West Ham vs Brentford Odds

Igor Thiago to score anytime

The loss of Bryan Mbeumo in the summer hit Brentford hard, but Igor Thiago was given the chance to impress in the starting lineup, and the Brazilian has repaid Andrews’ faith in him.

He scored twice against Manchester United last month to make it four goals in seven appearances this season, and he comes up against one of the top-flight’s most vulnerable defensive lineups in West Ham.

Jarrod Bowen to have 2+ shots

One of the few positives for West Ham this season is the impressive performances from star player Jarrod Bowen, who heads into this game with three goals and two assists in his last nine games for club and country.

The England international has had a West Ham-high 15 shots in seven games this season and has registered at least two shots in three of his last four games for the club.

He faces a Brentford side that have allowed their opponents the third-highest amount of shots in the Premier League this season.

Premier League Odds

Max Kilman to be shown a card

Only Manchester United, Brighton, and Chelsea have seen their opponents pick up more yellow cards than Brentford this season, and West Ham centre back Max Kilman may be the latest name to go into the book against the Bees.

The 28-year-old has already picked up three bookings in seven appearances this season, two of which have come in his last three games, and he has been carded three times against Brentford in the past.
