Premier League predictions for Man United vs Brentford

My Man United vs Brentford best bet: Over 2.5 goals (-192 at Sports Interaction)

When these two meet, it's usually eventful. There have been Over 2.5 goals in eight of the last ten clashes between United and Brentford. The last two encounters saw four and seven goals scored, respectively.

Before their 1-0 win over Chelsea last weekend, United had seen at least three goals scored in each of their previous five matches. Brentford drew their previous five Premier League games, three of which ended 2-2. I believe we're going to see an open game, with plenty of attacking from both teams.

Man United vs Brentford same-game parlay (SGP)

Over 2.5 goals

Bruno Fernandes 1+ assists

Igor Thiago 1+ shots on target

Over 9.5 corners

Bruno Fernandes has 18 assists for Manchester United in the Premier League this season, with only three players ever recording more in a single campaign. I’m counting on his creativity to set up at least one goal for United and help our parlay as well.

Brentford’s Igor Thiago has scored 21 times in 33 Premier League appearances, so United should be wary of him. He has been one of the standout discoveries of the English football season and has exceeded all expectations with his efficiency.

To bring my same-game parlay to an appealing +775 return, I’m finishing with corners. United average 4.67 per match, while Brentford are at 4.82. A clash between attack-minded teams usually creates plenty of corner opportunities, and I’m counting on that.
