- Venue: London Stadium, London
Premier League action continues on Monday evening as an out-of-form West Ham take on Brentford at the London Stadium.
Nuno Espírito Santo faces his first home fixture in the Hammers hotseat with the hosts labouring inside the relegation places, while Brentford make the short trip to the London Stadium after a hard-fought defeat against Manchester City two weeks ago.
The Bees have a great record in this fixture, and will be confident of picking up a positive result against a Hammers side still searching for a first home win of the season.

West Ham team overview
West Ham come into Monday's Premier League contest now winless in four matches after a 2:0 defeat at Arsenal before the international break.
A disastrous start to the season would cost former boss Graham Potter his job, with Nuno Espirito Santo taking over for the defeat at Arsenal earlier this month.
Sitting 19th in the division with just four points picked up from seven games played, the Hammers have struggled badly at the London Stadium. West Ham lost all three PL games at this venue, with ten goals conceded in the process.
Head coach Santo is unable to call on German forward Niclas Füllkrug. Otherwise, the Hammers have no reported injury issues.

Brentford team overview
Brentford return to Premier League action after a narrow 1:0 defeat against Manchester City in their most recent fixture two weeks ago. Erling Haaland's first-half goal proved the difference as the Bees failed to capitalise on several second-half opportunities.
While in mixed form, the Bees have picked up some positive results in recent weeks, with a 3:1 win against Manchester United, and a 1:1 draw at Chelsea the highlights of a run which has seen them avoid defeat in three of their last five games.
Keith Andrews' men have a superb record in this fixture, while they claimed a 1:0 win on their last visit to the London Stadium earlier this year.
The Irish boss has two expected absentees from his squad this weekend. Antoni Milambo and Aaron Hickey are tipped to miss out for the visitors.
