Manchester United aims to regain some form in Wednesday’s clash with Brentford. The team is heading into the game without a win in three Premier League matches. The Red Devils haven’t even scored a single goal in the three contests.
Can Erik ten Hag get the goals flowing again with his side Wednesday? Bookmaker 10bet has the odds at 1.62 for United to score over 1.5 goals, at 3.00 for them to get over 2.5 goals, and at 6.75 for a massive offensive outburst and over 3.5 goals scored.
※ Current Odds Date & Time: April 4th, 6:00 P.M. (EST)
If United fails to score again, the team would be on the longest scoring drought since April 1989. There was recently a four-goal effort in the Europa League against Real Betis and United also advanced to the FA Cup semifinals with a 3-1 victory over Fulham, but for some reason, the goals have dried up in the Premier League.
It’s been an awful run, but it’s worth noting that United has0 failed to score in just three home games across all competitions this season. Marcus Rashford has been almost automatic in home outings throughout the campaign, hitting 18 goals at Old Trafford, which is the highest mark since Wayne Rooney had 19 home goals back in 2011-12.
In Brentford, United will face a team that rarely goes down quietly and whose record has been immense for several months now. A 1-0 loss suffered against Everton on March 11 is Brentford’s lone defeat in their last 16 league outings. The run includes seven wins and eight draws.
Ivan Toney has been carrying the Brentford attack with 17 Premier League goals and will look to do it again Wednesday. He’s just made his England debut and should be full of confidence and very hyped up for a chance to register a 20-goal season in the Premier League. Dave McCulloch is the only player to manage more goals in a single top-flight season for Brentford.
The Bees shocked United in the first meeting of the season with a 4-0 win and now have a chance to register their first league double in the match-up since the 1936-37 season. It would be a hugely impressive feat, considering United’s stature and the fact that ten Hag’s men have lost just once at home all season in the league and that was in the opening round against Brighton way back in August.
