Manchester United vs Brentford Predictions

Brentford's season has had a very inconsistent start but Bryan Mbuemo has not been inconsistent in finding the back of the net. With United struggling, no wins in their last five, the value here is in the BTTS market.

Head to Head

Manchester United lead 4-1 in the head to head in six Premier League clashes. The most recent meeting ended in a 1-1 draw last season.

Man United Form

Manchester United headed into the international break on a five-game winless run and just two wins in their last nine games.

Pressure is mounting on manager Erik Ten Hag after United lost their last two home games in the Premier League 3-0 to Liverpool and Tottenham.

Either side of the defeat to Tottenham have been four draws - 0-0 stalemates with Crystal Palace and Aston Villa in the Premier League as well as 1-1 against Twente and 3-3 against Porto in the Europa League.

Man United Team News

Kobbie Mainoo and Harry Maguire are injured, joining Leny Yoro and Tyrell Malacia on the sidelines.

Manuel Ugarte picked up an injury with Uruguay earlier in the week and is doubtful.

Luke Shaw and Mason Mount will face late tests over their fitness.

Brentford Form

Brentford head to Old Trafford following an entertaining 5-3 victory over Wolves before the international break.

That continued a mixed run of form for Thomas Frank's side, who have won twice, drawn once and lost twice in the last five games.

A 3-1 EFL Cup win over Leyton Orient was sandwiched in between Premier League defeats to Manchester City 2-1 and Tottenham 3-1. The Bees also drew 1-1 with West Ham.

Brentford Team News

Rico Henry, Josh Dasilva, Igor Thiago, Aaron Hickey and Gustavo Nunes all remain injured and Mathias Jensen is likely to miss the game despite approaching a return frim a calf problem.

Yoane Wissa is set to return from a four-game absence, but Mikkel Damsgaard and Christian Norgaard are doubts after pulling out of the Denmark squad in the international break.

Verdict

Man Utd v Brentford

In a trappy contest, I'm happy to focus on goals with BTTS predicted. Brentford's Bryan Mbuemo is in flying form and most likely to get on the scoresheet.
