Manchester United to Win
Brentford have lost five of their last six matches in the Premier League. Their solitary point during that run came from a 2-2 draw with Chelsea. The Bees were beaten 2-1 by Manchester United earlier in the season. Hence, we are backing Erik Ten Hag’s side to emerge victorious once again.
The Red Devils shocked many by edging past Liverpool in their FA Cup quarter-final before the international break. United put in an improved display with some key players returning from injury. Lisandro Martinez is also expected to be back for this one, which should further enhance Ten Hag’s side’s ability to dictate the tempo. United have won six of their last seven away matches in all competitions. The only setback was the 3-1 defeat at the Etihad.
Bet 1: Manchester United to win @ 2.18 Bet9ja
Chances at Both Ends
Clean sheets have been hard to come by for Erik Ten Hag’s side this season. Some have pointed to the tactical setup and others have blamed the personnel. However, what is clear is United have afforded the opposition far too many opportunities.
Therefore, the second of our Brentford vs Manchester United predictions is for both teams to score over 2.5 goals in the match. This bet has won in United’s last five Premier League away matches. Over that period, there has been an average of four goals per game.
Brentford haven’t looked as solid as last season and are leaking plenty of goals. Their average of 1.86 goals conceded per match is the 4th highest in the division. GG and over 2.5 goals have won in their last seven home matches in the league.
Bet 2: GG & over 2.5 goals @ 1.70 Bet9ja
Hojlund Back in His Stride
Rasmus Hojlund had been in fine form before picking up an injury. He started in Manchester United’s 4-3 win over Liverpool and played reasonably well before being brought off after 71 minutes. The Danish striker should be at full fitness by the time he returns from the international break. He has scored in his last six Premier League matches and we can back him to score once again at odds of 2.75 with Bet9ja.
Although Hojlund made a slow start to life in the Premier League, he took the Champions League group stages by storm. He has shown both the physical and technical qualities required of a top striker. His scoring record has benefitted from an improved United’s attack since the beginning of the year.
Bet 3: Hojlund to score @ 2.75 Bet9ja
Visitors to Edge a Goal-Friendly Affair
The last of our Brentford vs Manchester United predictions is for the visitors to win and both teams to score in the match. This bet is available using Bet9ja’s 1×2 and GG combined market at odds of 3.60.
Thomas Frank’s side have only failed to score in one of their home matches in the Premier League this season. In those 14 matches, they scored an average of 1.71 goals, but conceded 2.07.
Ten Hag’s side have won three of their four league matches on the road in 2024. They have had two wins at 2-1 and another at 4-3. United have not managed to keep a clean sheet at Brentford ever since the Bees have been promoted from the Championship.
Bet 4: Manchester United to win & GG @ 3.60 Bet9ja
