Manchester United take on Brentford on Saturday, with the Red Devils aiming for their second consecutive Premier League victory.
Ruben Amorim managed to alleviate some of the mounting pressure on him last weekend thanks to a 2-1 success over Chelsea at Old Trafford. The embattled United manager has been grappling with increasing criticism, having only secured one league win so far.
However, goals from Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro were enough to see off Enzo Maresca's side in a match that saw both teams reduced to ten men following the dismissals of Casemiro and Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez.
Brentford have found themselves in a similar predicament to United this season. The Bees have only clinched one league game under new boss Keith Andrews and currently sit in 17th place, just one point above the relegation zone, after suffering a 3-1 defeat to Fulham last weekend.
The encounter at the Gtech Stadium will be further intensified by Bryan Mbeumo returning to his former home ground after signing for United this summer.
The 26-year-old striker was at the heart of a transfer saga that persisted throughout much of the summer until he finally sealed his move to Old Trafford in July. Brentford also triumphed over United 4-3 in the same fixture last season.
Brentford will welcome United to the Gtech Community Stadium on Saturday, 27 September. Kick-off is scheduled for 12:30pm UK time, as per the Mirror.
The match will be aired live on TNT Sports 1 and TNT Sports Ultimate, with coverage commencing at 11am. Supporters who have a package including TNT Sports can also stream the game live on their televisions, mobiles and tablets via a Discovery+ subscription.
TNT Sports is accessible on all major television platforms.
