Michael Carrick's side won 1-0 at Chelsea last weekend and that was particularly impressive as they were missing so many key players in defense. United sit in third in the Premier League table and if they win against Brentford they will go 11 points clear of sixth-place Brighton with four games to go. A top five spot, which secures Champions League qualification, would basically be sewn up with a few games to spare.
But Brentford are chasing European qualification themselves as first-year coach Keith Andrews aims to make history and take the Bees into Europe for the first time in club history. Brentford drew 0-0 against Fulham last weekend and have drawn five games in a row.
