Ralf Rangnick has warned Brentford won't be an 'easy game' for Manchester United on Monday night.
Although United drew 1-1 against Chelsea on Thursday, Thomas Tuchel's side were dominant and the better side throughout. Chelsea were wasteful in front of goal, though, which meant Cristiano Ronaldo was able to earn a point for United.
United's hopes of securing Champions League football are now all but officially gone. United have three games remaining — against Brentford, Brighton and Crystal Palace — and they can't afford to drop points if they want to (albeit reluctantly) qualify for the Europa League.

United will welcome Brentford to Old Trafford tonight (Monday) in their final home game of the season. And Rangnick has warned it's won't be an easy match for United, regardless of Brentford already seemingly maintaining their Premier League status.
“You could even see that in their [Brentford] first game, I remember watching it on TV," Rangnick told United's in-house media.
"They won 2-0 against Arsenal, they won two or three weeks ago 4-1 at Chelsea, at Stamford Bridge. We had our problems in the first game, in the first half. We could have been 2-0 down and we could only manage to change and turn the game in the second half.
"This will again not be an easy game for us. As I said, very important [end on a high at Old Trafford] both for the fans but also as a boost for the new season. For everyone it would be good to get three points in this game.”
