Manchester United vs Brentford Prediction

In their previous meeting earlier this season, Manchester United won 2-1 at home. Manchester United is 6-1-1 in their last 8 meetings against Brentford, but they are 1-1-1 in their three meetings in Gtech Community Stadium. Over is 5-2 in their last 7 meetings.

In this Manchester United vs Brentford Prediction, Brentford is coming as -140 home favorites. Brentford is rightfully favored, as they have more points this season and still have something to play for, as they have still have mathematical chances to grab the 7th spot that leads to next season’s European Championships. They also find a United team that has nothing to play for and are sandwiched between two mid-week games for the Europa League, so their focus will be there.  

Brentford has been terrible at home lately, but this is the perfect bounce-back spot, as they also have the momentum off a huge road victory against the 6th-best team of the Premier League, Nottingham Forest. I expect the hosts to get the job done in this crucial game, so take Brentford on the moneyline in this one.
