West Ham United visits Brentford FC on Saturday in a London derby mid-table Cup. Yes, it’s the ninth versus tenth place teams locking horns in the capital city, and their paths to the current place that they hold in the standings could not be any more different.
Brentford started very slowly out of the gates, but have since come on strong. West Ham took 10 out of the first 12 points possible, but have stumbled since. At least in the league; because in cup competition there are still getting results.
