After comfortably achieving survival in their first ever Premier League season, Brentford are looking to avoid the much-feared second season syndrome. A battling 2-2 draw away to Leicester City was a solid enough way to kick off their sophomore EPL campaign, and that point should see them return to their home stomping ground with plenty of confidence. Conversely, Manchester United may come into this match against Brentford completely drained of belief. The new era under Erik ten Hag did not get off to a good start, with a defeat to Brighton at home feeling all-too-familiar for the increasingly frustrated supporters. Many of the side’s failings from last season were present, although new signings Lisandro Martinez and Christian Eriksen (formerly of Brentford) were at least a positive straw to clutch onto. Reports this week of transfers for Marko Arnautovic and Adrien Rabiot have hardly enthused fans, and the cloud of speculation still hanging over the future of Cristiano Ronaldo continues to darken the mood. It may only be the second game of the second, but this match already feels like a must-win for Manchester United in order to avoid the atmosphere around them turning toxic. Here’s how they line up: Brentford: Raya, Hickey, Jansson, Mee, Henry, Norgaard, Roerslev, Jensen, Dasilva, Mbeumo, Toney. Man Utd: De Gea, Dalot, Maguire, Martinez, Shaw, Fred, Fernandes, Eriksen, Sancho, Rashford, Ronaldo. Can Manchester United put last weekend behind them and claim a vital three points, or will Brentford heap even more misery on ten Hag as he looks to get the famous club moving in the right direction?
