Brentford welcome Manchester United to the Gtech Community Stadium on Saturday for a fixture that has brought them great success in recent seasons.
Keith Andrews’ side have won two of their last three home league games against the Red Devils and will be confident of securing another positive result in front of their own fans.
To do so, however, they must address a worrying trend of dropping points from winning positions. The Bees have already let eight points slip this season after taking the lead, a near-record amount at this stage of the campaign. A more resilient and clinical performance will be needed to hold off a United side that has the highest shot volume in the league.
Brentford have been boosted by the return of Mikkel Damsgaard, who is available again after illness and is expected to start. However, manager Keith Andrews has a late decision to make on Reiss Nelson. The winger will be assessed ahead of the game after recently returning to training.
The Bees will definitely be without Paris Maghoma and Gustavo Nunes. Maghoma is set to rejoin team training next week, while Nunes will build his match sharpness with the B team. Igor Thiago and Kevin Schade are expected to lead the attack, with Jordan Henderson anchoring the midfield.
Brentford predicted XI: Kelleher; Van den Berg, Collins, Pinnock; Kayode, Henderson, Yarmolyuk, Lewis-Potter; Damsgaard; Schade, Thiago.
The Premier League fixture will be played at the Gtech Community Stadium on Saturday, 27 September 2025. Kick-off is scheduled for 12:30 pm BST.
The match will be broadcast live on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League, with coverage starting at 12:00 pm BST.
