Latest Brentford vs MU team information
Brentford duo Gustavo Nunes and Paris Maghoma are both recovering well from hamstring injuries and will be assessed ahead of kick-off, but their inclusion in the squad remains up in the air.
Realizing that Amorim's Man United will continue to use a three-man central defender formation, coach Andrews considers keeping the 3-5-2 formation or switching to a four-man defense.
Jordan Henderson has been impressive in recent weeks and could partner 21-year-old Yehor Yarmolyuk in midfield. Kevin Schade – who scored twice in the 4-3 win over Man United last season – is likely to continue to start up front alongside Igor Thiago.
As for Man United, Casemiro will be suspended for one match after his red card against Chelsea, while Lisandro Martinez has yet to recover from a long-term knee injury from February.
Diogo Dalot will be assessed before kick-off after missing the last two games with a muscle injury. If he is not back in time, Noussair Mazraoui or Amad Diallo will be options at right-back.
Amorim is considering giving goalkeeper Senne Lammens a Premier League debut, but is likely to continue to rely on Altay Bayindir. In defence, Leny Yoro hopes to start in place of Harry Maguire.
In the absence of Casemiro, Manuel Ugarte is the most likely candidate to partner captain Bruno Fernandes in midfield. Up front, Matheus Cunha is pushing for a starting spot alongside Benjamin Sesko and Bryan Mbeumo – who will face his former club for the first time since moving to Old Trafford for £71m in the summer.
Latest predicted lineup for Brentford vs MU
Brentford:
Kelleher; Van den Berg, Collins, Pinnock; Kayode, Henderson, Yarmoliuk, Lewis-Potter; Damsgaard; Schade, Thiago

Latest Brentford vs MU football review
After a summer of significant change at Brentford, new manager Keith Andrews has picked up just four points from his first six Premier League games and suffered his third defeat to West London rivals Fulham last weekend.
Mikkel Damsgaard marked his return to the starting line-up with a first-half opener, but Fulham came back to win 3-1 at home, a result that left Brentford just one point above the relegation zone.
Brentford have conceded 10 goals in five Premier League games this season, their worst run at this stage since 2003-04 in the Third Division (also 10). Only newcomers Burnley (95) have faced more shots than Brentford (70) so far this term.
Andrews' side have also struggled to hold onto their lead, dropping eight points despite opening the scoring. They have scored first in four games but have won just one (D1 L2). In Premier League history, only Newcastle in 1999-00 (11 points) and Fulham in 2007-08 (9 points) have dropped more points from a winning position after five games.
Tough tests against Man City, Liverpool and Newcastle lie ahead, but Brentford can look forward to hosting Man United on Saturday. They have won two of their last three home games against the Red Devils (D1), and lost just one of their last six at Gtech (W3 D2).
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim was relieved of pressure after his side took advantage of goalkeeper Robert Sanchez's fifth-minute red card to win 2-1 against Chelsea in heavy rain at Old Trafford last weekend.
The win was “necessary” after United endured their worst start to a Premier League campaign since 1992-93, with just four points from four games. Despite the negative atmosphere still surrounding the red half of Manchester, the 20-time champions are now level on points with Man City and ahead of Newcastle, Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa – the teams that qualified for European competition last season.
After five Premier League games, Man United have had the most shots (81) – while Brentford have the fewest (41). The Red Devils are averaging 16.2 shots per game, up from 13.9 last season under Amorim. Their expected goals (xG) have also increased from 1.33 to 2.03.
Scoring against Brentford has not been a problem for United, who have scored in 11 of their last 13 meetings in all competitions. However, the Red Devils travel to Gtech on a seven-game winless run away from home in the Premier League (D2 L5). The last time they had a worse run was between March and October 2019 (8 games).
Man United have lost 15 of their last 24 away trips to London and suffered a 3-4 defeat in their last visit to Brentford in May. Amorim's side are in danger of losing back-to-back league games to Brentford for the third time in their history, having lost back-to-back league games in the Second Division in December 1934 and the First Division in February 1937.
