West Ham predicted XI vs Brentford – Aaron Wan-Bissaka deservedly axed in double change
West Ham are set to welcome Brentford in a return to Premier League action on Saturday.
Brentford are preparing for a trip to face West Ham as both sides look to get back to winning ways at the London Stadium.
West Ham lost 2-0 to Arsenal last time out as Nuno Espirito Santo fell to defeat for the first time since taking over as Hammers boss.
The Portuguese head coach has West Ham fan protests to deal with at the Brentford clash as supporters vent frustration towards David Sullivan and Co.
The head coach won’t let this impact his side, with Aaron Wan-Bissaka potentially set for a place on the bench after starting at the Emirates.
Kyle Walker-Peters could replace Aaron Wan-Bissaka vs Brentford
The defeat in North London showed few positives for the Irons as the away side failed to truly land a glove on Mikel Arteta’s men.
Declan Rice scored but didn’t celebrate for Arsenal as the former E20 skipper kick-started three points for the Gunners.
Alphonse Areola was breached on two occasions, but could still remain in between the sticks against the Bees at the Olympic Stadium.
Ahead of the Frenchman, El Hadji Malick Diouf, Konstantinos Mavropanos, and Max Kilman could keep their places having won a combined seven duels against the Premier League leaders.
Nuno could utilise one change with Wan-Bissaka potentially set to be replaced by Kyle Walker-Peters after the former failed to complete a single tackle or win a ground duel against Arsenal.
This back four could be protected once again by Soungoutou Magassa and Mateus Fernandes, who could be in for yet another start in claret and blue.
Lucas Paqueta could also keep his place in the side as he looks to pick up his form after a difficult spell so far this campaign.
Callum Wilson could start for West Ham vs Brentford
It would be little surprise to see Nuno stick with the wide options that have served him well so far in East London.
Jarrod Bowen could remain in the side as he looks to grab another strike under the ex-Wolves boss, adding to his equaliser against Everton.
On the opposite flank, Crysencio Summerville may start again in the hope of showcasing his best at the London Stadium for the third time this season.
This duo could be joined by Callum Wilson from the start as Niclas Fullkrug suffered yet another injury on international duty.
The Englishman could beat Callum Marshall to the post to feature against the Bees, but there is no doubt that the youngster could make a positive impact off the bench.
