RECENT MEETINGS

United have won all three Premier League head-to-heads in M16, although it was mighty close last time out. The Reds entered stoppage time 1-0 down, before Scott McTominay’s double ensured it was an afternoon that will live long in the memory of all those who were in attendance at Old Trafford.

There looked to be similar late drama in our favour during the reverse fixture, when Mount opened his United account after 96 minutes in west London.

Unfortunately, there was still time for the home side to respond and Kristoffer Ajer converted an Ivan Toney pull-back to secure a draw for Brentford.

DID YOU KNOW?

On average, the ball has been in play for 58 minutes and 38 seconds in Brentford’s Premier League games this season, and 58 minutes 34 seconds for United – the second and third highest amounts in the top-flight, behind Manchester City (62 minutes 49 seconds).

Christian Eriksen has been involved in six goals in his last five games in all competitions (3 goals, 3 assists). Only Alejandro Garnacho (7) has more for the Reds than the Denmark international in 2024/25.

All 10 of Brentford’s points this season have been won at home and the Bees have lost 13 of their last 17 top-flight fixtures on the road.

With thanks to our friends at Opta.
