Prediction: 1-1
Brentford
Monday’s football game between West Ham United and Brentford will bring down the curtain on the Premier League round 26. The Hammers are eager to put an end to their three-game losing run in the national championship and they are likely to fight tooth and nail in the London derby. Kalvin Phillips serves a one-game ban, while Lucas Paqueta remains in the recovery room.
The Bees, on the other hand, encountered numerous defensive issues during their 4-1 defeat to Liverpool. As Brentford will go for a win in the local derby as well, we are tempted to put our money on both teams to score. All Ethan Pinnock, Aaron Hickey, Rico Henry, Bryan Mbeumo, Kevin Schade, and Joshua Dasilva are out of contention with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the away team. In the first half of the season Brentford defeated West Ham 3-2.
Highlighted Player (Tomas Soucek):
Tomas Soucek is a Czech Republic international who plays for both Slavia Prague and the Czech national team. Soucek is a product of Slavia Prague football academy and after spending several years at the likes of Viktoria Zizkov and Slovan Liberec, he returned to the Sinobo Stadium outfit in the 2017/2018 season.
Tomas Soucek has established himself as a first-team regular at Slavia Prague and he made his debut with Czech Republic on November 15, 2016 in a friendly against Denmark. The 192-cm tall midfielder has 13 caps for Czech Republic U21 team as well.
His main position on the field is defensive midfield, but he is used as central midfielder and centre-back as well. Tomas Soucek was born in Havlickuv Brod on February 27, 1995. His preferred foot is right and his contract with Slavia Prague should expire on June 30, 2024.
Highlighted Team (Brentford):
Based in London, Brentford compete in the Championship and they were founded in 1898. Griffin Park has been the home ground of the club since 1904 and the capacity of the venue is 12,300.
The Bees have yet to play in the Premier League and it has to be noted that they made it to the FA Cup sixth round on four occasions (1937/1938, 1945/1946,1948/1949, 1988/1989). Brentford played in the League Cup round 4 in the 1982/1983 and 2010/2011 season and that is the club’s biggest success in the competition.
Brentford’s main rivals are Fulham and Queens Park Rangers and they take on each other in the West London Derby. The rivalry with the Cottagers is probably the biggest and you should bear in mind that the clashes between the two teams have their history of crowd violence. The colour of Brentford’s shirts is red and white and they wear black shorts.
