THE LOWDOWN

MAN UTD

• Man Utd were far from their best at St. James’ Park this past weekend and paid the ultimate price, losing 2-0 against Newcastle and now firmly entrenched in a battle with the Magpies and Tottenham for a top four spot.
• Anthony Martial came off the bench in that game and could feature from the start this time round as Erik ten Hag looks to rediscover the potency going forward which deserted the Red Devils on Sunday.

BRENTFORD

• Brentford will have seen Saturday as an opportunity missed, having been pegged back three times to draw 3-3 away at Brighton, whom they are in direct competition with for a place in Europe next season.
• The Bees have lost just once in the Premier League since the World Cup break, that being away to Everton, which puts into perspective how tough they will be to beat here.

THE PREDICTION

Man Utd’s recent record at Old Trafford under Erik ten Hag is formidable and they will need to stamp their authority on this one early on, making full use of home advantage against a Brentford side who have already come to Manchester this season and won in the Premier League, that being vs Man City at the Etihad Stadium. United should dominate, but the Bees will no doubt make themselves difficult to break down and pose a threat on the counter-attack through Ivan Toney in particular. Despite that, the quality of Man Utd is expected to shine through at home and backing the Red Devils to triumph has to be favoured.

TIP: MAN UTD TO WIN
