Eight points from seven games sees them languishing in 14th place in the table.

They are also without a win in two Europa League matches.

And the stats do not suggest things will begin to turn around this weekend.

According to sports betting site BetVictor, Man Utd have won just THREE of their last 10 games after the October international break stretching back to 2014.

That is the worst record of the so-called “Big Six” – and even below the likes of Newcastle and Aston Villa.

It is yet more damning news for Ten Hag – who faces an injury crisis ahead of the Brentford game.

Due to a host of defenders being unavailable, Jonny Evans could be set to start at left-back.

Noussair Mazrouai, Luke Shaw, Tyrell Malacia, Harry Maguire and Leny Yoro are all sidelined.
