Man United fans, it's time to return to Premier League action. The October international break might have been good for stress levels but (un)fortunately, Man United are back.
Erik ten Hag is still in charge, having made it through the October international break. His position to one side, he knows that he needs to win this match. He is treading on thin ice as it is, so he cannot afford any more slip ups.
Brentford is a tough team to host. However, a win for Man United would see them close the two point gap between both clubs, overtaking Brentford at least.
