5:52 PM ETLONDON -- Manchester United remain a baffling team to watch. Despite the confusion and disjointed play on Wednesday, United came away some impressive individual performances that led to three quality goals against a well-drilled Brentford side.United's 3-1 win had its positive takeaways, which may hold a wider significance further down the line: the well-taken Anthony Elanga goal, Marcus Rashford breaking his goal drought, the growing influence of Fred in Ralf Rangnick's midfield, and the proof they can win a game without Cristiano Ronaldo scoring.

The Goalscorer Bet: Diogo Jota - Crystal Palace (A)It's been a frustrating couple of weeks for Diogo Jota owners, with two blanks in his last four games, but patience is needed. Jota had six shots in the box against Brentford, so it's amazing that he didn't come away from that game with an attacking return.Liverpool remain in great form, having scored seven goals in their last four games. Jota is the main man in the Liverpool attack right now, given that Mo Salah and Sadio Mane are absent at the African Cup of Nations. Liverpool face Crystal Palace this week, with Leicester, Burnley and Norwich in the upcoming schedule - all excellent fixtures. Palace have conceded seven goals in their last four games. Jota is available to back at 11/2 to score two or more goals against Crystal Palace thi...
