Match Prediction

This fixture has become infamous for dramatic goals and unpredictable results, and based on both sides' erratic form and defensive vulnerabilities this season, it’s unlikely to be a clean sheet for anyone. Brentford’s determination at the Gtech Community Stadium, where they thrive on causing upsets, will be amplified by United’s urgent need to break their cycle of inconsistency. Given the high-scoring nature of their recent clashes and United’s reliance on Bruno Fernandes (who leads their scoring charts with two goals), I expect goals at both ends.

Prediction: Brentford 2 - 2 Manchester United
