David de Gea can reach Premier League record for Man Utd vs Brentford

Manchester United's David de Gea can reach a Premier League record on Monday night when the Reds host Brentford at Old Trafford.

De Gea has been one of the few bright notes for United this season pulling off some crucial saves to ensure that United remained in touching distance of the Champions League places up until recently. United's draw against Chelsea followed by victories for Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur at the weekend mean the Reds' hopes of making the top four are all but over.

Ahead of United's last home match of the 2022/23 season, De Gea can equal or surpass one of his own Premier League records. United's number one has made a phenomenal 121 saves in the Premier League this season.

This incredible achievement is just one save behind his best of 122 which he managed in the 2018/19 campaign. The fact De Gea can surpass his shot saving record on Monday shows how crucial he has been to keeping United in matches.
