Brentford - Manchester United predictions

The visiting team knows the task they face will not be easy. Beating Brentford on their own turf would be a major accomplishment, and it is always a formidable challenge.

The visitors are not walking into an easy match by any means, but they should be able to come out on top. Winning this match will be a welcome boost to their rankings, though such an outcome is priced at 2.26.

Brentford missed out on locking down 3 points in their previous Premier League matchup, which they played as visitors. Predictions for the game were fairly hopeful, but they found themselves trailing behind their opponents Burnley at halftime. They never managed to recover, either.

Manchester United had a lot going for them as they entered their previous Premier League bout, with both home-field advantage and considerably shorter odds to win than their opponents. As such, the 2:0 HT/FT victory wasn’t much of a surprise, but it will be interesting to see if their form keeps up while playing away.

Experts have pointed at The Bees’s defence as their biggest issue at the moment. They conceded 6 goals over the last 3 Premier League games.

Manchester Utd and their strikers are well-regarded by experts and bookies alike – they managed to score more than 5 times in their previous 3 home games.

We are well into the second half of the Premier League season and Brentford are starting to feel the heat. The home side currently sit in 15th with only 5 points keeping them above the relegation zone. They are priced at unfavourable 3.10 to beat Manchester United this Saturday and will have every reason to feel worried ahead of this fixture.

The Bees already played against Manchester United in an earlier round of this Premier League season. Manchester United ended that match with a solid home win, though it wasn’t exactly a decisive victory. They’ll be trying to repeat that success, though it’s worth keeping in mind that they’re the away team this round.

Both teams will have to play with an above-average number of injures. Christian Nørgaard, Joshua Da Silva, Ethan Pinnock are unavailable for the hosts. Conversely, Harry Maguire, Casemiro, Lisandro Martínez, Jonny Evans will not be able to play on the visiting side. The odds still favour Manchester Utd, though.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 1.58 if you use the 888Sport sportsbook.
