Manchester United is looking to turn around their disappointing start to the Premier League season as they prepare to host Brentford this Saturday. Currently sitting at 14th place, the team has only managed to secure two victories so far, raising questions about Erik ten Hag’s future as manager.
Brentford, on the other hand, has been showing strong form, scoring within the first 80 seconds of their last four matches before the international break. They recently achieved a remarkable five-goal victory against Wolves, and a win against United could see them break into the top seven of the league.
The match will take place on Saturday, October 18, at Old Trafford, starting at 3 p.m. local time (BST), which translates to 10 a.m. ET in the US and Canada, and 1 a.m. AEDT in Australia on Sunday morning.
For those looking to watch the match live, it will be streamed on Peacock in the US, requiring a Peacock Premium or Premium Plus account.
