West Ham have misplaced three out of three at residence – the identical as Brentford have accomplished away – so one thing has bought to offer right here.
This might be 0-0 on the idea that each groups will simply sit in their very own half – I do not suppose both workforce will need the ball and each managers favor to play on the counter-attack.
Nuno Espirito Santo has been introduced in to maintain the Hammers up, so he isn’t going to alter the model of play that has introduced him success.
I’m not positive how that may go down with the West Ham followers – current historical past suggests they aren’t going to love it, however they’ll must get used to it.
Brentford boss Keith Andrews additionally likes to park the bus, so I do not see there being many probabilities at both finish, or a lot ambition to attain.
I can really feel myself edging in direction of one other 0-0 prediction however as a substitute I’m going to be optimistic and say there will likely be a aim… and a primary West Ham win for Nuno.
He has already crushed Brentford as soon as, as Forest supervisor on the opening weekend of the season, so this could be a really welcome double for him.
Sutton’s prediction: 1-0
