Looking to take a giant leap towards officially punching their Champions League ticket, Manchester United will welcome Brentford to Old Trafford on Monday night.
Landing a gritty 1-0 victory away at historic rivals Chelsea last time out, Man United are clearly enjoying life under Michael Carrick’s guidance and they open Monday’s showdown sat in bronze medal position.
While Brentford might still remain at the heart of a European chase, the Bees have been forced to settle for a single point in each of their previous five consecutive Premier League appearances and they face a tricky test here.
Ahead of Monday’s showdown from Old Trafford, we have taken a glance at some of the most attractive Manchester United vs Brentford Bet Builder Tips.
United’s Champions League charge
While there might have been plenty of raised eyebrows as Carrick made a shock return to the Old Trafford dugout, Man United have enjoyed a sensational rise under their former midfielder.
Last seen securing a gritty 1-0 victory away at historic rivals Chelsea, the Red Devils return to Manchester on Monday night sat in bronze medal position and with the mood in their camp at a continued high.
Suffering just a pair of top-flight defeats since Carrick’s temporary return back in January, United are also sat firmly in the driving seat to book what would be a lucrative Champions League ticket.
Pencilled in as a standout contender here, United will now be looking to secure consecutive Premier League victories for the first time since the start of March.
It should also be highlighted, despite being last seen at Old Trafford getting hit with a dissapointed 2-1 loss at the hands of Leeds, they have won each of their other five showdowns in front of their own supporters.

Fernandes’ remarkable run
Sat firmly in the driving seat to punch a lucrative Champions League return over the coming weeks, Man United’s talismanic skipper has continued to spearhead their charge.
Firmly in contention to be crowned as this season’s PFA Player of the Year, Bruno Fernandes’ has shattered plenty of records at Old Trafford this year and has rightfully received a string of plaudits.
Registering a remarkable 18th Premier League assist of the season as United claimed a 1-0 victory at Stamford Bridge last week, the former Sporting Lisbon starlet will once again play a leading role here.
In fact, the 31-year-old has recorded 26 direct goal contributions in his 30 Premier League appearances this season (eight goals, 18 assists).
Likewise, finding the net away at Bournemouth prior to March’s international break, United’s red-hot skipper has also registered at least one direct goal contribution in 13 of his previous 16 appearances for club and country.

Thiago’s Golden Boot charge
With many expecting that Igor Thiago could spearhead Brazil’s charge at the World Cup summer, Brentford’s attacking talisman has embarked on an astonishing rise to superstardom.
Cementing his spot as one of Europe’s most clinical number nines, the 24-year-old finds his stock at a red-hot high and is battling it out with Manchester City icon Erling Haaland in the race for this year’s Golden Boot.
Bagging a Premier League brace during Brentford’s 2-2 stalemate against Everton earlier in the month, Thiago has registered 21 top-flight strikes this season and is one of just two players who has passed the 20-goal threshold.
Likewise, notching 13 goals for club and country so far this calendar year, Thiago is averaging a Premier League strike every 135 minutes.
Linked with a string of European giants ahead of the summer transfer window, the former Ludogorets striker will be hoping to exploit a Man United defence who have recorded just a sole clean sheet at Old Trafford from their previous five attempts.
