Manchester United's clash with Brentford rearranged for January 19

Manchester United's trip to the Brentford Community Stadium to take on Thomas Frank's Brentford side has been rearranged for January 19.

The Red Devils had been due to tackle the Bees on December 14, but the match had to be postponed due to a severe COVID-19 outbreak in Ralf Rangnick's squad.

The Premier League have now set a new date of January 19 for the contest, while Leicester City's match against Tottenham Hotspur will take place on the same night.

Man United's game against Brighton & Hove Albion was also postponed in December, but there has not yet been a new date set for the clash with Graham Potter's side.

The 20-time English champions are currently preparing for back-to-back matches against Aston Villa in the FA Cup and Premier League respectively.

Rangnick's side suffered a 1-0 defeat at home to Wolverhampton Wanderers on Monday evening, which left them in seventh spot in the Premier League table, four points off fourth-placed Arsenal with a game in hand.
