Manchester United vs Brentford team news
Manchester United: There may be a ray of hope for Mason Mount to make it back into the squad while Alejandro Garnacho, opting out of international duty to recover from a knee injury, is also a vague possibility. Updates regarding Harry Maguire, Leny Yoro, Noussair Mazraoui, and Tyrell Malacia are still close to kick-off.
