Brentford and West Ham today clash in a London derby with both sides looking to get back to winning ways.
The Bees have enjoyed a reasonable start to the season, winning two of their five games and pushing Manchester City very close two weeks ago.
Things are less positive for the Irons, who came into the season off the back of a splurge in the transfer window under new manager Julen Lopetegui. They have won just one of their five league games though, and have lost their first three of their home games for the first time in their Premier League history.
Date, kick-off time and venue
Brentford vs West Ham is scheduled for a 3pm BST kick-off today, Saturday September 28, 2024.
The match will take place at the Gtech Community Stadium in London.

Brentford vs West Ham team news
Thomas Frank has several issues to deal with, most notably Yoane Wissa’s ankle injury that could rule him out until late November. Joshua DaSilva, Mathias Jensen, Igor Thiago, Aaron Hickey and Rico Henry all remain out.
Julen Lopetegui has less injury concerns, with only Edson Alvarez suspended and Niclas Fullkrug needing to be assessed.

Brentford vs West Ham prediction
Brentford’s two league wins this season have both come at the Gtech Stadium, but West Ham’s sole win also came on their travels in another London derby with Crystal Palace.
With Wissa missing for Brentford and Lopetegui likely to demand things are tightened up at the back, a draw seems the most likely result here.
