Follow live coverage as Brentford face West Ham United in the Premier League today.

Ivan Toney was missing from the Brentford squad for the clash. The striker was ruled out by what the club described as “a minor hamstring injury”.

West Ham made nine changes with one eye on Thursday’s Europa League Conference semi-final with AZ Alkmaar.

Declan Rice and Jarrod Bowen were among those dropped to the bench with Michail Antonio missing out completely.

We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

Brentford vs West Ham United

Fabianski comes to the rescue again to keep out Mbuemo's bouncing header. Brentford appeal for a penalty when Downes outmuscles Roerslev in the box. There's a brief VAR check but nothing more.

There's a brief stoppage in play as Henry gets treated for a knock. It's nothing for Brentford to be concerned about.

Five minutes of added time await. Benrahma cuts inside from the left and scoops the ball into Raya's arms. He's been West Ham's best player, despite only being on the pitch for half an hour.

Fabianski gathers the ball in the penalty area as Onyeka's first touch lets him down. He's not to blame for West Ham's imminent defeat.

No doubt Brentford would be happy to settle for just the two goals, but they're still looking for more when they can. Mbuemo cuts inside and gives Fabianski a simple save to make.

Brentford do make another change though. Roerslev takes Hickey's place at right-back.

West Ham's corner comes to nothing. Benrahma quickly wins another one, but the result is the same. Brentford aren't going to be beaten at their own set-piece game.

Benrahma's latest run down the left is rewarded with a corner. West Ham will make a substitution before they take it.
