Manchester United hasn’t had the best start to the season. In the Premier League, the Red Devils are currently in 10th place. In the Champions League, they are the only representatives from the Premier League who have failed to secure a win after two rounds. The only positive note is their advancement to the League Cup’s Round of 16 after defeating Crystal Palace (3-0). In their last two matches, Eric ten Hag’s side suffered losses at their home ground, even though they were favorites according to bookmakers’ odds. First, they failed to break down Crystal Palace’s defense (0-1) in the Premier League. Then, in a high-scoring game against Galatasaray, they couldn’t even secure a draw after Casemiro’s red card (2-3). Manchester United is still plagued by numerous injuries. Jadon Sancho is isolated from the team’s training sessions. Due to injuries, defenders Luke Shaw, Tyrone Mings, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, and Lisandro Martinez will not be able to play. It appears that with these losses, keeping a clean sheet in defense will be challenging.
Brentford is currently performing worse than they did last season, but they have managed to avoid a significant decline. The Bees have only lost two matches, but at the same time, they have drawn in four of their encounters, making them the Premier League leaders in terms of draws. With seven points, the team currently occupies the 14th position in the table. After their victory over Fulham (3-0) in the second round, Thomas Frank’s side has failed to secure all three points in any match, with three draws and two losses. In their last match, Brentford played to a 1-1 draw with Nottingham Forest. Striker Ivan Toney will be unavailable due to suspension until January. Defenders Rico Henry and Ben Mee, as well as forwards Mikel Damsgaard and Kevin Shad?, are injured and will not play today.
