Man United Vs Brentford Preview
Level on points with Liverpool and Aston Villa, a victory for Man United will essentially secure Champions League football for next season. That would put them 11 points ahead of Brighton in sixth with just four games left to play.
And if that outcome does prevail, it further demonstrates what a mighty-fine job Michael Carrick has done since replacing Ruben Amorim in January. The next Man United manager odds strongly favour Carrick to be in the dugout for the first league game of the 2026-27 season.
As for Brentford, they have their own European aspirations but too many draws have taken the sting out of the Bees in recent weeks. In fact, Keith Andrews side have shared the spoils in their last five consecutive top-flight outings.
Leading marksman Igor Thiago has netted three of Brentford’s four goals in that run. The Premier League top scorer odds for the Brazilian currently stand at 6/1 which means he has an outside chance of catching Erling Haaland. And he’ll do his chances no harm at all if he finds the target at Old Trafford.

Man United Vs Brentford Team News
Leny Yoro is in line to return to the matchday squad having missed the 1-0 victory at Chelsea last weekend. If the Frenchman is passed fit, it will ease the defensive pressure on Man United who are still missing Matthijs de Ligt, Patrick Dorgu and the suspended Lisandro Martinez. With that said, Harry Maguire is available after serving his ban.
As for Brentford, they will have to make do without Fabio Carvalho, Antoni Milambo, Vitaly Janelt, Rico Henry, Joshua DaSilva, Jordan Henderson and Kaye Furo. It’s likely that Keith Andrews will keep the same XI who earned a 0-0 draw with Fulham on matchday 33.
