Manchester United will be looking to keep their top four hopes alive when they face Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium this weekend.
Brentford has not been able to match their performance from the previous season. Currently, they are merely three spots clear of the relegation zone and are heading into this weekend’s match with a six-game winless streak. They recently faced an unexpected loss against Burnley, a team also threatened with relegation, before the international match. Hence, their supporters are expecting a strong comeback against United.
This season has not been favorable for Manchester United, as they currently occupy a position three spots lower than their 2022-23 finish. Despite this, the Red Devils have succeeded in securing some crucial victories, even in games where their performance was subpar. A case in point is their triumph over Liverpool in the FA Cup quarter-finals prior to the international break, a feat made even more impressive given the numerous missed opportunities by Klopp’s team.
Brentford vs Manchester United Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals
Brentford’s recent games have been marked by an abundance of goals. In their last four games, bets on over 2.5 goals were successful, and I anticipate a similar result this weekend.
Though ranking within the division’s top five defences, Manchester United have recently struggled to demonstrate their defensive prowess in league games. In their last eleven Premier League matches, the Red Devils have only managed to keep two clean sheets and merely two games concluded with less than 2.5 goals.

Brentford team news
Brentford will likely not have Sergio Reguilón available this weekend, as the defender received a straight red card against Burnley prior to the international break.
This season, Yoane Wissa and Bryan Mbeumo are the Bees’ leading goal scorers, each with seven goals. They could possibly join Ivan Toney in the final third. Meanwhile, Yegor Yarmolyuk is vying for a starting position in the midfield.

Manchester United team news
Tyrell Malacia, Lisandro Martínez (both suffering from knee injuries) and Luke Shaw (muscle injury) will be unavailable for selection by Manchester United head coach Erik ten Had this weekend due to their injuries.
Antony is advocating for a starting position following his significant goal against Liverpool in the FA Cup. However, it seems improbable that he will supplant Alejandro Garnacho or Marcus Rashford.
