Game Preview
This campaign, Manchester United has stumbled from one crisis to another, and their match against Brentford on Saturday is now unquestionably a must-win for struggling manager Erik ten Hag. After a shaky start to the new campaign, Ten Hag’s team is currently ranked 10th, and after dropping their previous 2 home matches versus Crystal Palace and Galatasaray in the Champions League, the heat is truly starting to mount on the Dutch coach. With a victory this weekend, the Bees would surpass Manchester United and reach the double-digit mark for the year.
They currently trail league leaders and defending champions Manchester City by 9 points, and both on and off the field, the team appears to be in turmoil. Even though the Dutch coach has obtained assurances through the team’s board, you have to question how much longer this shambles can go on for a team like United, particularly following a Champions League loss to Galatasaray midweek despite twice taking the lead. The performance of powerful Danish striker Rasmus Hjlund, who is going to be eager to begin his Premier League account following two goals midweek, was a significant plus in the Red Devils’ 3-2 defeat to the Turkish team.
Brentford might be upset that their most recent match resulted in a tie at 10-man Nottingham Forest. After a scoreless first forty five minutes, Niakhate was dismissed in the 56th, and shortly after, Norgard gave Brentford the lead, giving them hope that they would win. Forest, though, scored an equalizer in the 65th minute of play and hung on to claim a share of the points. Even though Brentford have prevailed in just a single league match this year, Brentford is pretty much the last squad you’d want to face when you’re looking for a victory. 4 of their 7 league matches have ended in draws, but you can bet they’ll be hungry for vengeance at a disoriented Old Trafford.
