Premier League announce Manchester United vs Brentford match officials list

Manchester United host Brentford on Saturday at Old Trafford as they aim to pick up their fourth win in the Premier League.

The Bees most recently managed a 1-1 draw away to Nottingham Forest, while the Red Devils lost 3-2 to Galatasaray in their midweek Champions League match.

Even Rasmus Højlund‘s brace wasn’t enough to save United from a defeat to Galatasaray at Old Trafford, making it the first time the Turkish team ever won on English soil.

With the score tied at 2-2 entering the final 15 minutes, a reckless pass from Andrè Onana towards Casemiro went straight to Dries Mertens prompting the latter towards fouling him in the box and receiving a straight red.

Both Onana and Casemiro may have heaved sighs of relief when Mauro Icardi missed a penalty. However, the Argentine banished his 12-yard woes to deftly dink the ball over Onana a few minutes later.

Erik ten Hag‘s side have endured an awful start to their season with six losses already at the time of writing.
