Man Utd versus Brighton – English top flight Live Coverage
Match Preview
The Red Devils, after defeating Liverpool and Sunderland, are targeting three Premier League wins in a row in this match. They have momentum managed by Ruben Amorim currently!
Yet, Brighton are Brighton & Hove Albion, with victories on each of their last three trips to Old Trafford, and six of the last seven fixtures head-to-head.
Never mind the wind behind; Brighton have found relatively easy. Having said all that, Brighton are otherwise consistently inconsistent similar to their opponents, making this match competing and maybe thrilling to watch.
Kick-off is at 5.30pm BST and we say this for the last time in a while with daylight saving ending, kids. Let’s go!

Squad Updates
United decided on two adjustments in the wake of last week’s victory against Liverpool. Benjamin Šeško comes in instead of Mount, who drops to the bench, and the match-winner Maguire is absent at all, Yoro replaces him in defense.
An issue arose during training this week. Tyrell Malacia is named on the bench for the first time this season.
Brighton have made one change after their 2-1 home win over Newcastle. Seemingly a tactical shift, including Maxim De Cuyper for Diego Gómez, on the bench.
The striker, ex-United player champions in in 2012-13, visits his old club with great momentum scoring four in three, exceeding his tally over his last 15 matches.
Pre-Match Patter
Amorim is unfazed about the views of the Reds’ manager … but Danny Welbeck is highly concerned about the considerations from the German coach.
Analysts have noted this encounter could have implications for both teams’ seasons as the Premier League unfolds.
Star performers include the captain from the hosts and Danny Welbeck from the away side, both on song lately.
