Brentford vs Man Utd preview
Man Utd probably didn’t want the international break to come, finishing on a high in THAT dramatic extra time FA Cup win over Liverpool.
Erik ten Hag’s side looked good for a lot of that game and need to make sure that momentum hasn’t been lost with the two-week gap.
They lost their last away game at Man City but there’s no great shame in that and they had won all six of their previous games away from Old Trafford.
They’re six points behind Tottenham who sit fifth at the moment and nine points off fourth placed Aston Villa – though do have a game in hand over Unai Emery’s side.
So they can’t really afford many – if any – more slip ups in their quest for Champions League football next season.
The Bees have won one, drawn one and lost seven of their last nine games and are very much in the relegation picture given that current form.
In truth, they’d be a lot closer to trouble too if Nottingham Forest and Everton had avoided a points penalty this season.
They sit five clear of Forest who are in 18th heading into the weekend and really need to start picking up points.
Main marksman Ivan Toney will be buoyed by his first England goal in midweek.

Brentford vs Man Utd betting tips
- Alejandro Garnacho to score anytime at 11/4 – CLAIM HERE
Has pushed his way into being one of United’s key players at present.
Played in both games for Argentina during the break, including starting the second game.
Has gone a few weeks without scoring a goal and will be wary of impact both Antony and Amad Diallo had coming off the bench against Liverpool and will look to get back amongst the goals himself.
Great value pick for a booking, with no Brentford player picking up more than Onyeka’s eight in the league this season.
Picked up three bookings in last six games for the Bees and with United’s pace and power out wide, and Fernandes’ constant involvement, it looks a perfect recipe to continue his booking spree.
If United turn up the way they did in the two games before the break, they SHOULD win this.
Brentford have scored in five of their last six games though, including against Arsenal and Liverpool in that time.
United still a bit suspect at the back but should have enough in attack.
