Predicted Man Utd line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Brentford, Antony starts

Manchester United welcome Brentford to Old Trafford for today's Premier League clash.

The Red Devils have picked up only nine points from their seven league games and they must win today to avoid losing further ground on the Champions League places. They are already seven points behind the top four.

Predicted Line-up:

Andre Onana has played every minute of United's campaign thus far. He made a couple of high-profile errors in midweek, but Erik ten Hag has backed him to continue in goal. He will start between the sticks.

In front of him, it could be the same backline from Tuesday. Diogo Dalot and Sofyan Amrabat will continue at right-back and left-back respectively with Raphael Varane and Victor Lindelof in central defence.

Casemiro and Mason Mount are the manager's go-to picks in midfield. They have started in each of the previous three matches and should continue as the midfield pairing against Thomas Frank's men.

Further forward, there could be a solitary change from the midweek loss with Antony replacing Hannibal. He is likely to start on the right wing. Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford will retain their places in the number 10 and left wing positions with Rasmus Hojlund up front.

Predicted Man Utd line-up (4-2-3-1): Onana; Dalot, Lindelof, Varane, Amrabat; Casemiro, Mount; Antony, Fernandes, Rashford; Hojlund.
