Before every Reds match, you can make your predictions in the Manchester United App, predicting the line-ups, correct score, first scorer and Man of the Match. There's a chance to win cool prizes, so what are you waiting for?

Don't get started yet though - you'll want a quick run through of the team news first. On Friday, Erik ten Hag confirmed that Noussair Mazraoui and Manuel Ugarte would be available for his side at Old Trafford, although Harry Maguire and Kobbie Mainoo have been ruled out.

They join Tyrell Malacia, Mason Mount, Luke Shaw and Leny Yoro on the sidelines for this fixture, against the 11th-placed Bees.

After Ten Hag divulged the latest with his squad on Friday, we asked MUTV pundits Wes Brown and Danny Webber for their best guesses as to what might unfold in M16. Here's what they said...

WES BROWN

Line-up: Onana; Dalot, De Ligt, Martinez, Mazraoui; Fernandes, Casemiro, Eriksen; Amad, Rashford, Garnacho.

Score: United 2 Brentford 1

First scorer: Amad

MOTM: Amad

"Amad missed out on the internationals with the Ivory Coast due to illness, and I think the rest will have done him good. He's already scored in the league this season, at Brighton, and I'm expecting him to shine for the Reds as a starter today."

DANNY WEBBER

Line-up: Onana; Mazraoui, De Ligt, Martinez, Dalot; Ugarte, Fernandes, Casemiro; Rashford, Garnacho, Hojlund.

Score: United 3 Brentford 2

First scorer: Fernandes

MOTM: Fernandes

"Last season's fixture here was a thriller and I'm expecting things to go the same way today. Bruno Fernandes is due a goal and he could be the difference between the two sides from midfield."

Will you agree with Wes or Danny, or are you going to forge a different path when selecting your picks?
