Brentford vs Manchester United prediction and odds: United can come through what is likely to be a lively west London encounter

Check out our 13/5 Brentford vs Manchester United prediction below
Manchester United head to Brentford having lost just one of their last eleven matches in all competitions but despite that, positivity is thin on the ground around Old Trafford right now.
Pretty much every department of the United side is performing to a lower level than expected, perhaps with the exception of the goalkeeper, and although there were some promising signs in attack at Villa Park on Saturday, ultimately the wheels came off and United couldn't get anywhere near to seeing the game out.
A tricky little trip to Brentford now awaits Ralf Rangnick's side and it says plenty about the Reds current troubles that they are as big as 4/5 with Grosvenor Sport to beat a side making their debut in Premier League. The Bees are 18/5 (just shy of 4/1) to bag a fifth home win of the season.
Make no mistake, this is going to be a difficult night for United, who are giving up chances against everyone they play.
Thomas Frank's side have repeatedly showed that they can mix it with the big guns in this division, bigger guns than United right now, notably when they held Liverpool to a 3-3 draw earlier in the season. Brentford restricted are one of the few sides to have restricted Manchester City to an xGF of lower than 1.0 this term while they racked up 17 shots to Chelsea's five in the 1-0 defeat in October.
The Community Stadium comes alive for these night games so United will need to be on their mettle, but they have enough experience in their side to handle this sort of occasion and that might just be a defining factor in the outcome of this game.
The Reds are giving up so many chances that it is making it very difficult to keep clean sheets and they will do
