ℹ️ Team News: Brentford
We are thinking that The Bees will possibly employ a 5-3-2 system for this one featuring Caoimhin Kelleher, Sepp van den Berg, Nathan Collins, K. Vassbakk Ajer, Michael Kayode, Keane Lewis-Potter, Yehor Yarmoliuk, Jordan Henderson, Mikkel Damsgaard, Igor Thiago and Kevin Schade.
🗞️ Team News: Manchester United
We’re of the thinking that The Red Devils seem likely to elect for a 3-4-2-1 lineup, starting Altay Bayindir, Matthijs de Ligt, Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw, Diogo Dalot, Manuel Ugarte, Bruno Fernandes, Patrick Dorgu, Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha and Benjamin Sesko.
⚡ Prediction
Here, we’re thinking that Brentford could well find it tough to register a score against this Manchester United lineup who we think will just have the edge.
We’re therefore seeing a narrow 0-1 win for Manchester United when all is said and done.
Hopefully it’s a good one.
