Brentford will host West Ham United at the Brentford Community Stadium in round three of the FA Cup on Saturday (January 7).

Meanwhile, West Ham failed to arrest their slump in form, as they were held to a 2-2 draw by Leeds United on Wednesday.
The Hammers have now failed to win their last six games, a run that has seen David Moyes sweat over his role at the helm of affairs. However, West Ham head into the weekend unbeaten in all but one of their last six away games across competitions, claiming three wins and two draws.
