West Ham vs Brentford: European Aspirations and Survival Hopes Clash

West Ham and Brentford will face off in a cross-capital derby tonight, with both teams eager to end their recent run of poor results. A victory for either side could have significant implications for their respective goals.

West Ham's European Aspirations

West Ham, managed by David Moyes, are currently winless in 2024 and find themselves in a mid-table position. The return of Lucas Paqueta could provide a much-needed boost for the team. With Liverpool winning the Carabao Cup, seventh place in the Premier League could secure European football for the Hammers. They are only three points away from that position.

Brentford's Survival Hopes

Brentford, on the other hand, have had a tough run of games and have only managed one win in their last five matches. The recent points deduction for Everton has added to their challenges in the battle to avoid relegation. A positive result against West Ham would greatly improve their chances of Premier League survival.
