Team Lineups:
Brentford:
Due to his suspension following a last-man foul at Turf Moor, Reguilon, who previously spent the first half of the season on loan at Man United, will be absent this weekend. Keane Lewis-Potter is expected to fill in on the left-hand side. Brentford will also be missing Kevin Schade (groin), Ben Mee (ankle), Rico Henry (knee), Josh Dasilva (knee), and Aaron Hickey (thigh). The availability of Christian Norgaard (back) and Ethan Pinnock (ankle) remains uncertain. On a positive note, Bryan Mbeumo made his return from injury during the loss to Burnley and is likely to feature in the starting lineup after the two-week break.
Possible Starting Lineup for Brentford:
Flekken; Zanka, Collins, Ajer; Roerslev, Janelt, Onyeka, Jensen, Lewis-Potter; Mbeumo, Toney
Manchester United:
Manchester United will be without Diallo, who received a one-match ban for removing his shirt during goal celebrations while already on a yellow card. Harry Maguire (unspecified), Casemiro (knock), and Lisandro Martinez (knee) are all doubtful for the match, along with Altay Bayindir and Jonny Evans. Luke Shaw (muscle), Anthony Martial (groin), and Tyrell Malacia (knee) remain sidelined. If Casemiro is unavailable, McTominay could partner with Kobbie Mainoo in midfield.
Possible Starting Lineup for Manchester United:
Onana; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Varane, Dalot; Mainoo, McTominay; Garnacho, Fernandes, Rashford; Hojlund
Prediction: Brentford 1-2 Manchester United
