Let us start the week with a borng draw!

In terms of xG-data, see below, Brentford has been so far the better team of these two, but the coach change at West Ham means we can practically forget the data from their part.

West Ham managed to play two matches under their new manager Nuno Espírito Santo before the international break. The first ended in a 1–1 away draw against Everton, and the second in a 0–2 defeat away to Arsenal. This match will be Nuno’s home debut. Expect straightforward counterattacking play and compact off-ball defending — the cornerstones of the good results achieved by Nuno’s previous team, Nottingham.

Brentford, weakened during the summer transfer window, were considered relegation candidates by some before the season began, but the Bees have shown they still belong in the Premier League. Before the international break, they narrowly lost 0–1 at home to Manchester City, but prior to that, Keith Andrews’ men had beaten Manchester United 3–1 at home with a strong performance.

Betting. While Brentford has a clear playing identity, Nuno’s West Ham is still building theirs. Nuno inherited from his predecessor, Graham Potter, a team that defends set pieces very poorly — and in this match, that weakness will be thoroughly tested. Brentford are among the league’s best set-piece teams at both ends of the pitch. In addition, the Bees counter quickly after regaining possession. West Ham go into the match as slight favourites, but the setup may not suit them as well as the underdog role did away to Everton, for example. From a probability standpoint, the match looks quite even, and the betting value appears to lean slightly toward Brentford.

Good luck!

让我们从无聊的平局开始新的一周吧！

在x - g数据方面，如下图所示，布伦特福德目前是这两支球队中更好的一支，但西汉姆联的教练变动意味着我们几乎可以忽略他们的数据。

在国际比赛日之前，西汉姆联在新主帅努诺Espírito桑托的带领下踢了两场比赛。第一场比赛是客场1-1战平埃弗顿，第二场比赛是客场0-2负于阿森纳。这场比赛将是努诺的主场处子秀。期待着直接的反击和紧凑的无球防守——这是努诺的上一支球队诺丁汉取得好成绩的基石。

在夏季转会窗口被削弱的布伦特福德，在赛季开始前被一些人认为是降级的候选人，但蜜蜂已经证明他们仍然属于英超。在国际比赛日之前，他们在主场以0比1险胜曼城，但在此之前，基思·安德鲁斯的队员们在主场以3比1击败了曼联，表现强劲。

押注。虽然布伦特福德有明确的球员身份，但努诺的西汉姆仍在建立自己的身份。努诺从他的前任格拉汉姆·波特那里继承了一支防守定位球非常糟糕的球队——在这场比赛中，这个弱点将得到彻底的考验。布伦特福德在球场两端都是联盟中最好的定位球球队之一。此外，蜜蜂队在夺回控球权后迅速反击。西汉姆以微弱的优势进入比赛，但这种布局可能不适合他们，就像在客场输给埃弗顿那样。从概率的角度来看，这场比赛看起来相当平衡，投注值似乎略微偏向布伦特福德。

好运！
