Manchester United beware! Super Eagles midfield general Frank Onyeka cleared to face Red Devils

Frank Onyeka will be available for Brentford's crucial game against Manchester United at the GTech Community Stadium.

Onyeka missed Nigeria's friendly against Mali after leaving the Super Eagles camp to attend to a family matter.

Nigeria went on to lose the game 2-0 and Onyeka's presence was greatly missed.

Brentford are just 5 points off the drop zone after a run of one win in their last six games.

They will have fond memories of this fixture after winning 4-0 here last season, and with Ivan Toney in sizzling form, the Bees will be confident of pulling off a result.
