Betting on Manchester United Football Club
After some unforgettable weeks, Manchester United seems to be coming back down to earth with a performance that has the team on the verge of dropping out of Champions League spots for the upcoming season.
Erik ten Hag’s team has gone three games without a win, and has dropped to fifth place in the standings with 50 points, the same as Tottenham, which holds fourth place due to a better goal difference.
Another worrying fact for Manchester United is that its attack has gone cold, failing to score in the last three games, including a 0-0 draw against bottom-ranked Southampton. The team will look to end this drought when returning home, where it hasn’t lost since September last year, boasting 19 wins and three draws in all official competitions.
What’s more, Manchester United has won 30 out of 39 possible points at home, only failing to score in two of 13 games in front of its fans. It is also the team that has conceded the fewest goals at home, with just eight.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): David De Gea; Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martinez, Luke Shaw; Fred, Scott McTominay; Antony, Bruno Fernandes, Marcus Rashford; Wout Weghorst.
Betting on Brentford Football Club
If Brentford wants to prove it has what it takes to play in Europe next season, getting a positive result at Old Trafford is key.
Currently, the Bees are in seventh place with 43 points, holding a spot in the Conference League. However, with two more matches played than its main rivals Brighton and Liverpool, the team can’t afford to keep dropping points like it did last weekend at home.
Nevertheless, Thomas Frank’s team has been a tough nut to crack throughout the season, and in the last 16 matches in the local championship, it has only lost once, away to Everton two weeks ago.
Ironically, Brentford has struggled on enemy grounds this year. The team has only managed to get 16 points out of 42 available, and in the last five matches, it has recorded one win, three draws, and one loss, which is not a good sign before its visit to Manchester United.
Probable Lineup (5-3-2): David Raya; Aaron Hickey, Pontus Jansson, Ethan Pinnock, Ben Mee, Rico Henry; Mathias Jensen, Christian Nørgaard, Mikkel Damsgaard; Bryan Mbeumo, Ivan Toney.
JefeBet Prediction
Manchester United’s goal drought is worrying, but this Wednesday at home, and against a Brentford defense with some doubts, the goals should return.
Ten Hag will be without Casemiro and Alejandro Garnacho, but Marcus Rashford has scored in four of the last seven clashes at Old Trafford, and Brentford has conceded seven goals in the last five games.
Speaking of Brentford, it is the sixth highest scoring team in the league, and has only been blanked in five of 28 Premier League games played.
To that we can add that in the four head-to-head lifetime encounters between these two clubs, the total score has not seen fewer than three goals on the board. Therefore, playing at DraftKings the scoring of both clubs is an excellent option. And how could it not be? If you bet $100 on the line at (-135) you can win up to $74.
Prediction: Both teams score (MAN 2 – BRE 2).
