Brentford v Man United Preview
Brentford’s Form
Brentford haven’t hit the heights of their 9th-place finish from last season and heads into the close of the season in relegation trouble with their 26-point total only 5 clear of the relegation zone. However, they can consider themselves a little unfortunate with their Expected Points total of 39.26 putting them 10th and above their opponents suggesting their performances are still there.
However, before the International Break, they were on the wrong end of a 2-1 defeat against Burnley in a relegation 6-pointer. An early red card from Reguillon set the tone for the day and 10 men Brentford created an XG of 1.25 to Burnley’s 2.70. That defeat made it 6 games without a win.
Victory for Brentford could mean they leapfrog Crystal Palace into 14th and would be one win closer to safety.

Man United’s Form
Man United have an uphill task in these final months of the league season if they’re to come close to qualifying for the Champions League next season. They’re currently in 6th place with 10 games remaining and have a 6-point gap to bridge between themselves and Tottenham in 5th before they can focus and try and surpass Aston Villa who are 9 points clear of them.
Before the International Break Man United had a dramatic 4-3 Extra Time victory against Liverpool in the FA Cup Quarter-Final when Amad scored from a breakaway in the 121st minute to dump Liverpool out before penalties came giving them a win which could prove the turning point of their season. Their last league came the weekend before that when they defeated another Merseyside outfit Everton 2-0.
Man United could cut the gap between themselves and Tottenham to 3 points if results go their way at the weekend.

Key Players To Watch
Ivan Toney – Brentford
The Brentford hitman is back from his ban and with a point to prove! Toney commenced his return in red-hot fashion with 4 Goals from his first 5 Games. However, he has since gone scoreless in his last 5 Games for Brentford although his performances have been largely good. He comes into this game following a goal against Belgium during the International Break and so will be high in confidence.
Kobbie Mainoo – Man United
The newest wonderkid to come out of Carrington? Kobbie Mainoo (18) already looks like the midfielder the club has been searching to find for decades now, anyone who watches Mainoo play can see that he demonstrates calmness and composure far beyond his years and when unavailable
Man United look lost when he doesn’t play. Mainoo is another coming into this following a brilliant International Break where he won Man of the Match against Belgium.
Brentford v Man United Prediction & Best Bet
Prediction: Brentford 0-2 Man United
Brentford haven’t reached the heights of last season, but their underlying data suggests their performances have been stronger than Man United on the whole.
Man United have an injury-depleted side, especially in the midfield and defensive areas, but should gain a lot of confidence from their win against Liverpool.
United should have enough to see off Brentford but I can’t see them thrashing them especially when away from home.
Best Bet: Man United Win + Under 2.5 Goals @ 11/2
