Game Preview
Man United’s place in the top four in the Premier League is once again under threat. The Red Devils come into this game on Wednesday without a win in their previous three, and they haven’t scored in the league since winning the EFL Cup final.
However, United’s home form has been extremely solid throughout this season, as they have lost just once in their previous 22 at Old Trafford. The Red Devils have also won each of their last ten against Brentford at the Theatre of Dreams, which is a run that stretches back to 1939.

Brentford remains seventh in the Premier League standings after a frantic match against Brighton over the weekend. The points were eventually shared after a thrilling 3-3 draw. The Bees are now unbeaten in their last three, but they have won just once over that period.
Brentford scored a huge 4-0 win over United in August, and they will be searching for a first league double over the Red Devils since 1936-37 on Wednesday. However, the Bees have won just three of their eight mid-week Premier League fixtures.
Prediction
This is a massive game at the Theatre of Dreams for United on Wednesday. It is a must-win fixture, and we expect them to edge over the line. We could see Anthony Martial finding the net on his return to the starting eleven.
