MANCHESTER United may have changed manager but they’re still turning in the kind of displays that got Ole Gunnar Solksjaer the sack.
The latest came on Saturday when United threw away a two-goal lead with 13 minutes to go as they drew at Aston Villa.
Old Trafford clearly isn’t a happy camp under interim boss Ralf Rangnick and he faces another road trip tonight at Brentford.
United are McBookie’s 4/5 favourites but that looks too short as the Bees have a decent home record.
They saw off Villa 2-1 at their new stadium last time out while they have also beaten Arsenal there and drawn with Liverpool.
Chelsea and Manchester City could also only manage 1-0 wins in Brentford so this should be a close game. That makes a one-goal winning margin for either side a good shout at 11/8 with McBookie.
The half-time draw also appeals at 11/9 with SBK while under 2.5 goals is 13/14 at the same firm.
There should be more goals in tonight’s other Premier League game as Spurs head to Leicester.
The Foxes still have a long injury list and four players at the AFCON so Tottenham look decent value at 13/10 with McBookie.
But it might be safer going for goals, with over 2.5 strikes 11/13 at SBK and BTTS a bit shorter at 9/13.
Harry Kane is showing signs of getting back to his best and he’s 59/50 at Unibet for anytime scorer.
In the AFCON, a double on Egypt and Nigeria winning their final group games pays 114/100. That looks good although the Super Eagles will rest players against Guinea-Bissau having already qualified.
