Ivan Toney was not in the Brentford squad for the crash. The striker was ruled out due to what the club described as “a slight injury to the biceps femoris”.
West Ham made nine changes with one eye in Thursday’s Europa League conference semi-final with AZ Alkmaar.
Declan Rice and Jarrod Bowen were among those left on the bench with Michail Antonio missing out entirely.
