Thomas Frank’s men are slowly establishing themselves as one of the most exciting teams in the Premier League this season. They are currently placed in the 10th place with 20 points after 16 matches played in the English table.
Brentford gets into this fixture off the back of 2-1 Premier League triumph against Watford. In that match, Brentford had 64% possession, 14 shots with five of them on target and goals scored by Pontus Jansson (84′) and Bryan Mbeumo (90′). Watford got six shots with two of them on target and a goal by Emmanuel Dennis (24′).
The Red Devils had a rough start of this season but they having been climbing up the table steadily, they are currently placed in the fifth spot with 27 points after 16 matches played. In this match they will be looking the fourth place which is only a point away held by West Ham united.
Manchester United heads into this game coming of a narrow 0-1 Premier League win versus Norwich City in their last game. In that match, Manchester United had 53% possession, 13 shots with five of them on target and a goal scored by Cristiano Ronaldo (75’P). Norwich City on the other side got 11 shots with five of them on target.
We are backing both teams to score during Tuesday’s match considering that the only time these two played together, the match ended with goals from both sides. Also, Brentford has had quite a lot of the same results since mid-October, 70% of the last ten games for them ended with both teams scoring. Manchester United had both teams scoring in three of the last five they played.
