Explore predictions, team news, and betting tips for the Premier League match between Brentford and Manchester United on Sunday, 4th May 2025 (2pm BST).
Tip 1
This bet offers a modicum of value alone when you consider that Damsgaard’s 10 assists in 33 matches translates to roughly 0.33 per 90 against odds of 17/5.
The Dane is enjoying a productive season for the Bees, producing 3.72 shot-creating actions per 90, which is helped largely by his set-piece duties, including when assisting Ethan Pinnock in the 2-1 defeat at Old Trafford in October.
In 2024, United conceded 17 goals from set-pieces in the Premier League; their most in a single calendar year, and marking their worst record for over 30 years. As of May 2025, they’ve shipped 10 this term, tying them with Wolves for the most in the league.

Tip 2
Brentford are in good form, having extended their unbeaten run to four matches with a second successive win when beating Nottingham Forest on Thursday night. In contrast, United have tasted victory only once since mid-March, coming against relegated opposition in Leicester City.
Yoane Wissa should lead the line again, with Bryan Mbeumo preferred to flank to his right. The Congo international scored his 17th league goal of the campaign this week and his third in consecutive matches, with the sharpshooter also boasting an impressive 47% shot conversion rate across the 2024/25 campaign.
Patrick Dorgu has seen three yellows in eight league appearances since joining United in January. He’s committed nine fouls in his last three outings, where he’s been booked on two occasions. In this match he will be directly facing Mbeumo – the Brentford player to have drawn the second-highest number of fouls.

The Bees ensured it was a long hangover from Forest’s FA Cup semi-final defeat to Man City last Sunday by handing the Tricky Trees back-to-back 2-0 losses, thanks to goals from Kevin Schade and Yoane Wissa.
Thomas Frank is without five of his squad for this clash, as Josh Dasilva, Igor Thiago, Fabio Carvalho, Vitaly Janelt and Aaron Hickey all remain absent.
Brentford Predicted XI: Flekken; Ajer, Collins, van den Berg, Lewis-Potter; Norgaard, Jensen; Mbeumo, Damsgaard, Schade; Wissa.
Manchester United’s emphatic 3-0 away victory over Athletic Bilbao in the Europa League semi-final first leg on Thursday offered a rare highlight in an otherwise dismal season under manager Ruben Amorim; going a long way in staging a potential all-English final between themselves and Tottenham Hotspur in that competition.
Similarly, the visitors have six casualties for this trip to the capital, with Lisandro Martinez, Ayden Heaven, Altay Bayindir, Toby Collyer, Joshua Zirkzee and Diogo Dalot all ruled out.
Man United Predicted XI: Onana; de Ligt, Maguire, Yoro; Mazraoui, Casemiro, Ugarte, Dorgu; Garnacho, Fernandes; Hojlund.
