West Ham vs Brentford Bet Builder Tips: Toney to score in 15/2 shot

West Ham United welcome Brentford to the London Stadium on Monday night (20:00) in the Premier League looking to end their three-game losing streak, with David Moyes’ position as Hammers boss under threat.

We have constructed a 15/2 bet builder for you to consider ahead of this clash.

Brentford to win

Three defeats on the spin, 11 goals conceded and zero scored, West Ham’s form is bleak and we don’t think things are going to improve on Monday night.

Brentford have been boosted by the return of Ivan Toney to their attacking ranks and they now carry a much greater goal threat than they did earlier in the season. They may have won just one of their last five but they are definitely in better shape than the hosts heading into this fixture.

The Bees will look to exploit West Ham’s lack of confidence and condemn them to a fourth straight defeat in the top-flight. They’ve had some tough fixtures of late which are factored into their recent defeats but with Toney in the side, they always have a good chance to grab three points.

Ivan Toney to score anytime

This tees up nicely for the next selection. Toney has been in razor-sharp form since returning to competitive action. The striker has scored four goals in six Premier League appearances so far, only blanking against Manchester City home and away.

Against a West Ham defence that are leaking goals at an uncontrollable rate, he will fancy himself to have a field day inside the London Stadium on Monday night.

His scoring return has been excellent this term and he carries Brentford’s greatest goal threat, so most of the positive action that they conjure will go through him. We are confident that he will find the back of the net in this one.

Edson Alvarez to be carded  

With things not going so well for the Hammers right now we are expecting the players to show a lot of frustration out on the pitch in this one, particularly if they go behind.

This means that we are expecting the hosts to pick up a couple of yellow cards in this all-London affair, and our instinct tells us that Mexican midfield battler Edson Alvarez is the most likely to receive one.

He has gone into the book eight times this season, more than any other West Ham player. And across the division, only three players have picked up more than he has.

With West Ham’s confidence on the floor right now, Monday’s clash could be quite cagey, with a lot of challenges flying in. With that in mind, we think he offers great value to collect his ninth yellow card of the campaign.
