Manchester United’s hunt for UEFA Champions League qualification continues as they travel to Brentford in the Premier League.
Erik ten Hag had a nightmare visit to the GTech Community Stadium last season as his side were embarrassed 4-0.
In the reverse fixture of this campaign, United came from behind late thanks to Scott McTominay’s added-time brace to win 2-1. They head into this latest meeting knowing that another victory could be critical in their bid to qualify for next season’s Champions League.
Brentford, meanwhile, started the weekend just five points above the relegation zone after a run of seven defeats in their past nine league games. A 2-1 loss to struggling Burnley prior to the international break was a particular blow, and Thomas Frank’s side will be eager to improve on that performance at Turf Moor.
The Sporting News will be following the Brentford vs. Man United match and providing live score updates.

Brentford vs Man United lineups, team news
Casemiro missed the game against Liverpool and there is yet to be an update on his progress, so we can only assume he will be out of this game, too.
While he didn’t look quite match fit, Rasmus Hojlund did return to action against Jurgen Klopp’s side and he’s expected to once again start up top.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka also made his first appearance since January and dealt with the threat of Mohamed Salah well. He started on the left and given Diogo Dalot‘s form, it could continue that way.
Man United (4-3-3, right to left): Onana (GK) — Dalot, Maguire, Varane, Wan-Bissaka — Mainoo, McTominay — Garnacho, Fernandes, Rashford — Hojlund.
Man United subs (9): Matchday squad released one hour prior to kickoff
After picking up that red card against Burnley, Sergio Reguilon will miss this game due to suspension. That means Keane Lewis-Potter could come in to replace him and Thomas Frank may have to resort to a back three.
Ivan Toney is expected to lead the line and he’ll want to keep his form up ahead of a potential place at Euro 2024 this summer, after scoring for England against Belgium in midweek.
Brentford predicted XI (3-5-2, right to left): Flekken (GK) — Zanka, Ajer, Collins — Roerslev, Onyeka, Norgaard, Janelt, Lewis-Potter — Toney, Wissa.
