With just eight points from seven games, Man United have made their worst-ever start to a Premier League season. Despite fighting hard to secure a 0-0 draw at Aston Villa last time out, the pressure continues to mount on manager Erik ten Hag. The Dutchman needs his players to deliver a big performance but it won’t be easy against a Brentford side with plenty of quality in attack. 

The Bees may have lost Ivan Toney and been without the injured Yoane Wissa but they have looked razor-sharp in attack, with Bryan Mbeumo particularly impressive. They put five past struggling Wolves last time out and have made a habit of scoring early. Manager Thomas Frank will be determined to heap the pressure on United so expect a fast start.

Unfortunately, there will be no Man United vs Brentford live stream in the United Kingdom. That's because U.K. broadcasters are blocked from airing Saturday 3 p.m. kick-offs to protect attendances elsewhere in the football pyramid.

U.S. fans visiting the U.K. can use one of the best VPN services to access their usual streaming service from abroad. We recommend NordVPN.

As it stands, live Premier League rights are split three ways in the U.K. between Sky Sports, TNT Sports and Amazon Prime Video.

For the 24/25 season, Sky Sports is set to show 128 matches live, while TNT Sports will show 52 matches live, including every Saturday lunchtime kick-off. Amazon Prime Video has the rights to 20 matches this season.
