Brentford FC vs. Manchester United 8/13/22 - Premier League Picks & Predictions

In the second round of the English Premier League, Manchester United will travel away from home where they will face Brentford. 

Brentford played their opening Premier League fixture away from home at the King Power Stadium in a match that ended as a 2-2 draw against Leicester City. It was a solid performance by Brentford and the team will be happy with the result. During the win, Brentford showed great fight as they were trailing 2-0 but fought back extremely strongly in the second half of the match. Ivan Toney and Josh Da Silva were both extremely impressive for Brentford as both players scored for the team. This is expected to be a tougher match for Brentford but they will be backing their own ability as they are playing at home and are in good form. 

On the other side of the pitch, Manchester United had an appalling start to the season as they lost at home against Brighton. The Red Devils had a poor time last season and the pressure is high for the team to perform better this time around. During their opening match, Manchester United were poor in front of goal as they had 17 shots but only managed to score once. The defending was also poor from Manchester United as they were poor and disorganised. Manchester United will be desperate to turn things around in this match. 

Manchester United and Brenford played each other twice last season. The Red Devils were able to win both games last season with the fixture hosted by Brentford ending in a 3-1 win for Manchester United. Manchester United won their home fixture against Brentford 3-0.
