The mood around Old Trafford is far from optimistic at the minute as the Red Devils have made their worst start to a Premier League season in more than 30 years after losing four of their opening seven games. Further adding to Erik ten Hag’s woes are back-to-back defeats in the Champions League to Bayern Munich and Galatasaray. A mounting injury list is at least partially to blame, but results must improve quickly, otherwise, ten Hag will start to seriously feel the pressure.
Brentford also come into this match having endured a difficult start to the new Premier League season. The Bees have only won this season — against 10-man Fulham — and are currently on a streak of three defeats from their last four games in all competitions. Lackluster performances against the likes of Everton and Nottm Forest have suggested that the continued absence of forward Ivan Toney due to a betting ban is being felt, but manager Thomas Frank will need to quickly find a way to win without him as it’s not due back till late January.
Here's how they line up:
Man Utd: Onana, Evans, Maguire, Lindelof, Dalot, Casemiro, Mount, Amrabat, Bruno Fernandes, Hojlund, Rashford.
Brentford: Strakosha, Ajer, Collins, Pinnock, Hickey, Jensen, Norgaard, Janelt, Mbeumo, Wissa, Roerslev.
The Man Utd vs Brentford live stream could be considered a high-stakes game. Man Utd badly need a win to boost the rapidly souring mood, but Brentford could also really do with the three points to lift themselves up the table. You won’t want to miss this one, and we’ve got all the details you need to watch from anywhere down below.
