Brentford inflicted a humiliating defeat on Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United at the start of his career in England, scoring 4 goals in the first 35 minutes of a 4-0 EPL victory in August 2022. Last season, the Bees were leading 1-0 at Old Trafford before United midfielder Scott McTominay turned the game around with 2 goals in added time at the end of the second half.
Brentford has been scoring freely this season despite the summer departure of England striker Ivan Toney and they beat Wolves 5-3 in their last league game. United has failed to find the net in 4 of their last 5 league matches, also tying their first two Europa League games against FC Twente and Porto. The Red Devils are a hard team for bettors to trust and Brentford, who have scored inside the first 2 minutes of their last 4 league games, can take at least a point from their trip to Manchester.

Arsenal are keeping pace with Liverpool and Manchester City at the top of the EPL standings and the Gunners should bank another 3 points when they visit Bournemouth on Saturday. Mikel Arteta’s men have already negotiated 3 difficult road games, winning at Aston Villa and Tottenham and tying 2-2 at champions City despite a red card for Leandro Trossard just before half-time.
Arsenal are playing Bournemouth at a good time as the Cherries, who also made a slow start to last season’s EPL, have lost 3 of their last 4 matches. After selling last term’s top goalscorer Dominic Solanke to Spurs, Bournemouth have failed to score in recent losses to Chelsea, Liverpool and Leicester. Now they face arguably the best defense in the Premier League and Arsenal won last season’s league meetings with the Cherries by 4-0 and 3-0 scorelines.

Wolves have had a tough early schedule and Gary O’Neil’s men picked up only 1 point from games against Arsenal, Chelsea, Nottingham Forest, Newcastle, Aston Villa, Liverpool and Brentford. That run leaves them bottom of the standings going into the weekend and things may not improve when they host champions Manchester City at Molineux.
Wolves have scored in each of their last 6 defeats in all competitions, including a 3-2 loss to Brighton in the EFL Cup and a 5-3 reverse at Brentford last time out. Backing City to win and both teams to score looks a good bet as Pep Guardiola’s men, missing key midfielder Rodri due to injury, beat Fulham 3-2 before the international break and have been short of shutouts this season. They conceded in early-season wins against Ipswich, West Ham and Brentford, and their last 3 domestic games before their clash with Fulham produced a 2-2 tie with Arsenal, a 2-1 EFL Cup win against second-division Watford and a 1-1 tie at Newcastle.
