• Manchester United defeated Chelsea 2-1 last time out in the Premier League

• Brentford have won just one top-flight match this term

• Recommended bet: Manchester United to win and both teams to score

Brentford suffered a 3-1 defeat at Fulham in the Premier League last weekend, stretching their winless run in the top flight to three matches.

Progress has been made in the Carabao Cup, however, as Keith Andrews has guided the Bees to the fourth round after wins over Aston Villa and Bournemouth.

Manchester United, meanwhile, secured a much needed win last week against Chelsea and they now sit level on points with Manchester City.

Team news

Andrews has a fully fit Brentford squad to choose from for United’s visit to the Gtech Community Stadium.

With everyone at his disposal, it will be interesting to see whether the manager opts for a back three.

Against Villa in the EFL Cup, three defenders were used as the club won on penalties. In the defeat to Fulham, Andrews switched things up by lining up with a 5-3-2 system.

United boss Ruben Amorim will be without Casemiro, who is suspended for the clash after his red card against Chelsea.

Diogo Dalot is likely to be missing along with Lisandro Martinez. Both will hope to be back in the starting XI sooner rather than later.

The stats

Since the Bees were promoted to the Premier League, Man Utd have enjoyed the better of the head-to-head, winning five of the eight fixtures played.

During that time, Brentford have secured some memorable wins, notably the 4-0 victory in August 2022 and a stunning 4-3 success last season.

Despite losing players such as Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa in the summer, the former joining United, Brentford have still managed to score in every single match this season.

Across their five Premier League matches, Brentford have conceded 10 goals, including three against both Fulham and Nottingham Forest.

United have found the back of the net just six times so far, drawing blanks against Arsenal and Manchester City.

Amorim’s side have conceded eight times in their five league matches, suggesting the backline is a little suspect.

Prediction

A total of 10 goals were scored across the two meetings between this pair last season, and more of the same could be on the cards this weekend.

United will be looking to win back-to-back top-flight matches under Amorim for the first time. Considering he has been in charge since November 2024, this is a remarkable statistic.

Brentford know what it takes to defeat the Red Devils, having done so twice in the league since promotion in 2021.

However, following the victory over Chelsea, United will be keen to finally move up the gears and secure another vital three points. 

Back Manchester United to win and both teams to score at 47/20 with LiveScore Bet.
