MANCHESTER UNITED return to Premier League action with a tough trip to Brentford – but Erik ten Hag’s men should be full of confidence following their last two results.
Amad Diallo scored a 120th-minute winner in what turned out to be an FA Cup classic against Liverpool before the international break.
And it was the perfect way for United to build on their last Premier League encounter where they comfortably beat Everton 2-0
However, the Red Devils still have their work cut out if they are to catch top-four rivals Aston Villa who are currently nine points ahead of them on the leaderboards.
But they’ll be expected to reduce the gap to just six as Brentford could be wounded from recently losing 2-1 to Burnley.
