Both clubs come into the fixture looking to build on midweek victories. However, the Red Devils&rsquo; focus will be split as they take on the Bees. In their last match, Brentford claimed a solid win at Nottingham Forest.<\/p><p>Meanwhile United dismantled Athletic Bilbao in Spain in the Europa League. With the season nearing its end, each side has a different goal in sight. Brentford are pushing for a top-half finish and potential European football.

With that terrible run of form, they have dropped to 14th place. Thus, dangerously close to the relegation scrap. They also have a poor away form with just 18 goals in 17 games on the road. Hence, Ruben Amorim may again rotate heavily to keep players fresh for Europe.<\/p><p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/de-bruyne-scores-winner-as-man-city-strenghten-position-in-top-five-race\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>De Bruyne Scores Winner as Man City Strenghten Position in Top-Five Race<\/a><\/strong><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Brentford Injury News<\/h2><p>Thomas Frank&rsquo;s Brentford are quietly building momentum.
