Manchester United vs Brentford: Match Preview
Manchester United face Brentford at Old Trafford on Saturday, October 19, 2024, at 3 p.m, as the Premier League resumes. However, the Red Devils will be without several key players due to injuries.
Injury Concerns for United
United manager Erik ten Hag could miss seven first-team players for this important game.
- Kobbie Mainoo is out for a month with a hamstring injury.
- Manuel Ugarte is a doubt after a thigh problem during international duty with Uruguay.
- Harry Maguire has a calf injury and will return next month.
- Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia are close to recovering but not yet ready to play.
- Mason Mount is still recovering from head and muscle injuries.
- Leny Yoro is undergoing rehabilitation after foot surgery.
Boosts for Ten Hag
On a positive note, Noussair Mazraoui is back after minor heart surgery, while Alejandro Garnacho and Amad Diallo are fit again after pulling out of international duty. Mazraoui could start at right-back, with Diogo Dalot likely filling in at left-back.
In defence, Ten Hag can select from Jonny Evans, Lisandro Martinez, Matthijs de Ligt, and Victor Lindelof.
Midfield and Attack Options
With Mainoo injured and Ugarte struggling for fitness, Casemiro and Christian Eriksen will likely partner in midfield, while Bruno Fernandes plays in a more advanced role.
In attack, Marcus Rashford is expected to start on the left, with Garnacho and Amad competing for the right-wing position. Rasmus Hojlund is likely to lead the line, though still regaining full form after missing the start of the season with a hamstring injury.
Predicted Manchester United XI (4-2-3-1)
Goalkeeper: Onana
Defenders: Mazraoui, Evans, Martinez, Dalot
Midfielders: Casemiro, Eriksen; Garnacho, Fernandes, Rashford
