Things have gone from bad to worse for West Ham recently. It's now nearly two months since the Hammers won a game of football, a run that stretches back eight games to their victory over Arsenal just after Christmas, with a 2-0 defeat to struggling Nottm Forest last time out putting more pressure on David Moyes. Could another defeat here spell the end for the West Ham boss?

Things aren't much better for Brentford either. Their defeat to Man City last week meant the Bees have taken just six points – wins against Forest and Wolves – from their last 11 games. After tonight's game they face two more London derbies against Chelsea and Arsenal, so a win against the out-of-form Hammers would give them a decent buffer over the teams in the relegation zone.  

Don't miss the West Ham vs Brentford live stream, or indeed any of the EPL action by checking out our full how to watch Premier League live streams hub.

How to watch the West Ham vs Brentford live stream wherever you are

The West Ham vs Brentford live stream will be shown on many different channels across the world, but what if you're not in your home country and want to watch it on your usual service?

The answer is to use a VPN, or virtual private network. A VPN will let you tune into your home coverage from wherever you are — meaning that if you're abroad, you can use one of the best VPN services to watch the games live as if you were in your lounge.

Our favorite right now is ExpressVPN, thanks to its combination of superb speed, great customer service and excellent device support. It also offers a no-questions-asked 30-day money-back guarantee, so you could check it out without having to sign up long-term.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're in the U.K. and want to view a U.S. service, you'd select U.S. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to Sling TV or another service and watch the game.
