The 17:30 BST kick-off presents a chance to respond positively to the opening-weekend loss to Brighton & Hove Albion but the Bees will be buoyant after coming from two goals down to draw at Leicester City, and running out in front of their home support in the top-flight again, after comfortably avoiding the drop in their maiden Premier League campaign.
One of the reasons behind their surge towards safety was the introduction of Christian Eriksen, but he will be representing United this time around, as a result of moving to Old Trafford on a free transfer in the summer.
