Brentford vs. West Ham Pick
Pick: West Ham, Draw No Bet (-138)
The goal line could appeal here. Many would be tempted to back under on goals, but instead, we’re going to back the hosts to get a result.
It’s good opposition for them. Brentford took 23 points from a possible 30 in their final 10 away matches of last season. It has lost its three away matches so far this campaign.
West Ham is at great value to add to the Bees’ traveling woes on the draw no bet market here.

Brentford vs. West Ham Betting Analysis
The matchday concludes with West Ham vs Brentford on Monday night. It’s the first home match for the new West Ham boss, Nuno Espirito Santo, after two away fixtures.
Nuno will see this as a great opportunity to get three points against a Brentford side that has slightly outperformed expectations, but is still beatable.
One suspects that Nuno’s influence and approach will better suit West Ham’s squad than Graham Potter’s did. The Portuguese boss was praised for Nottingham Forest’s defensive solidity during his time at the City Ground.
That is exactly what West Ham needs. The team has conceded more goals than any other Premier League side this season. It allowed five against Chelsea and three each against Tottenham and Sunderland.
Fixing that would help a great deal, and West Ham could come up with a win here.
