West Ham host Brentford in the Premier League today with David Moyes under increasing pressure to get the Hammers climbing up the table.
Despite a huge summer spend, the club are struggling towards the bottom of the Premier League and have won only four games all season.
While tonight’s opposition boast quality themselves, the sight of this expensively-assembled team losing at home to a team built on nothing like their budget would be hugely disappointing.
Brentford, meanwhile, returned from the World Cup break with a 2-2 draw with Tottenham, a game they could well have won.
