Brentford’s live stream against Manchester United will see the first meeting between these two sides since 1947 – and it’s significant for both. Man Utd could close the gap to the Champions League places with a win, but Brentford need points somewhere to avoid sliding into the relegation zone.

The Bees enjoyed a sparkling start to life in the Premier League but have now lost four of their last five games in the competition. They still have a 10-point lead over third place, but it would only take a few teams to string together results for that gap to close.
In truth, it seems unlikely that they will be embroiled in a survival battle this season, but they will still be aiming for 3 points here against an inconsistent United side. Some goals would certainly be welcome – they’ve scored just twice in their last five league outings.
It’s hard to know what to expect from the Red Devils right now. Their last five games have ended win-draw-win-lose-draw, so at least they’re keeping their fans on the edge of their seats. It’s probably better than their form under Ole Gunnar Solksjaer, when they consistently sucked.
New boss Ralf Rangnick can call on forwards Cristiano Ronaldo and Marcus Rashford against Brentford as both are now fit from injury. Ronaldo starts, while Rashford is on the bench, as is another striker who has been in the news lately, Anthony Martial. That said, Rangnick is probably hoping for a bit more defensive solidity after losing a two-goal lead against Aston Villa at the weekend, and Ronaldo will never bring that!
Here’s how they line up:
Brentford: Lossl, Pinnock, Jansson, Sorensen, Canos, Jensen, Norgaard, Janelt, Rasmussen, Toney, Mbeumo
Man Utd: De Gea, Dalot, Lindelof, Varane, Telles, Fred, McTominay, Elanga, Fernandes, Greenwood, Ronaldo.
