The Hammers look set to retain their Premier League status after major concerns that they could get dragged into a relegation dogfight. Although not mathematically safe, it would require an absurd turnaround in the coming weeks for them to sink back down.
David Moyes, though, will want to confirm West Ham’s place in the Premier League as soon as possible so he can focus solely on the Europa Conference League. His side took on AZ Alkmaar for the first leg of their semi-final on Thursday — which they won 2-1 — so now focus turns to Brentford.
Thomas Frank’s Bees went on a 12-game unbeaten run between October and March, but their form has stuttered in more recent months. Just two wins in their last nine games has threatened to derail their European ambitions, so they will want to build some form here against a potentially-distracted West Ham.

Brentford vs West Ham match stats
Ivan Toney will no doubt be heavily involved in this contest, one way or another. He has scored in each of his last two appearances against West Ham and has been on the winning side all three times he has faced the Hammers.
For a player who has registered the fifth-most shots in the Premier League this campaign (94) — with only Harry Kane (121), Erling Haaland (114), Mohamed Salah (110) and Marcus Rashford (97) producing more — he will fancy his chances on Sunday.
Away from his final-third potency, though, Toney has also racked up a rather concerning nine yellow cards, more cautions than any other forward in the league this term.

This will be the third time that Brentford and West Ham have faced each other this campaign.
