Late drama and some awful luck - we simulated Brentford vs Man United to get a score prediction

There's a positive buzz surrounding Manchester United at the moment, and Erik ten Hag will be hoping his side can keep up the feel-good factor with three points against Brentford on Saturday.

One of the games of the season unfolded in United's last outing, with Amad scoring in the 121st minute as United beat Liverpool 4-3 at Old Trafford to book their spot in the FA Cup semi-finals. Following on from a 2-0 win over Everton in the Premier League, Ten Hag's side are looking to make it three wins in a row.

United sit nine points off the Premier League top four with a game in hand, so victory against Brentford on Saturday is vital. The last time United visited Brentford they were handed a humiliating 4-0 loss, so Ten Hag will be hoping his side can make amends this time around.

So, can United pick up a big three points this weekend? Let's take a look.

To complete this simulation, we used EA FC 24 and updated the squads with the latest injuries and suspensions.

We predict that the hosts could line up in a 3-5-2 formation, with their starting XI as follows: Flekken; Zanka, Ajer, Collins; Roerslev, Onyeka, Jensen, Janelt, Lewis-Potter; Toney, Wissa.

We predict that United could set up in a 4-3-3 formation, with their line-up as follows: Onana; Dalot, Varane, Lindelof, Wan-Bissaka; McTominay, Mainoo, Fernandes; Garnacho, Hojlund, Rashford.

Brentford started brightly as the hosts created some good chances early on, and they took the lead after nine minutes through an Ivan Toney penalty following a poor challenge from Kobbie Mainoo inside the box. United didn't let the early goal impact them and they responded fantastically by levelling the score in the 23rd minute.

Marcus Rashford managed to beat his man down the left and surge
