- Competition: Premier League
- Date: 4th May 2025
- Kick-off: 14:00 UK / 15:00 CEST
- Venue: Gtech Community Stadium
Brentford will be looking to register three consecutive wins for the first time this season when they welcome Manchester United to the Gtech stadium this weekend.
The hosts had an ugly spell in December and January when they suffered four defeats in five games, but that seems a long time ago now. Thomas Frank's side are currently unbeaten in four matches, a run that includes two wins and two clean sheets.
Manchester United meanwhile beat the 10-men of Athletic Club 3:0 in their first leg of their Europa League semi-final in midweek. The Red Devils have had little to celebrate in the Premier League over the course of the last few weeks, perhaps best explained by the fact that they sit just four places above the bottom three. Ruben Amorim's men are winless in five league games, three of which were defeats, and they also failed to score in three of those fixtures.
Brentford vs Manchester United Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals
United kept a clean sheet away to Bilbao in midweek but that was a rare occurrence as it was the Red Devils' only clean sheet in their last six games in all competitions. Amorim's side have also struggled defensively on the road in the Premier League of late, keeping just one clean sheet in their last six away games.
Brentford have shown this season that they are not only capable of scoring against any side, but also getting more than one goal. The Bees netted six goals in their last two games alone and with their attacking record against United also good, Sunday's game should be entertaining.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

Manchester United team news
Joshua Zirkee is out for the rest of the season after suffering a hamstring injury in last weekend's Premier League defeat to Newcastle United.
Manchester United's injury list also includes Toby Collyer (leg), Lisandro Martinez (ACL), Ayden Heaven (knock) and Diogo Dalot (calf).
With Ruben Amorim expected to make some changes to his XI ahead of the Europa League semi-final return leg against Bilbao, De Ligt, Mount and Mainoo will be hoping to start against Brentford.
