Man Utd v Brighton & Hove Albion – Premier League Updates

Preamble

The Red Devils, coming off victories against Liverpool and Sunderland, look to make it a trio of victories straight tonight. They have momentum under Ruben Amorim currently!

Yet, Brighton are Brighton & Hove Albion, having triumphed on each of their last three trips at Manchester United’s home, and six of the last seven fixtures in this rivalry.

Never mind the wind behind; for the Seagulls relatively easy. That said, the visitors are also famously erratic like United, therefore the fixture appears both fascinating and potentially highly entertaining.

Start time is 5.30pm BST a final reminder for now with daylight saving ending, kids. Game on!

Selection Changes

Manchester United make two adjustments in the wake of the Anfield triumph at Anfield last weekend. Benjamin Šeško comes in for Mason Mount, now on the substitutes, plus the decisive scorer Maguire misses out at all, Yoro steps in at the back.

Maguire picked up an injury in midweek sessions. Malacia returns in a Premier League squad this campaign.

Brighton have made a single switch following victory at home against the Magpies. Seemingly a tactical shift, swapping in De Cuyper replacing Gómez, now among the subs.

Danny Welbeck, ex-United player champions in back in 2013, visits his old club on a hot streak of four goals in three games, an improvement on in his previous 15.

Leading Stories

The manager pays little heed about the views of the Reds’ manager … yet Welbeck is mindful regarding the plans by the former Chelsea manager.

Various reports suggest this encounter may influence for both teams’ seasons as the Premier League campaign progresses.

Ones to watch include the captain for United and Danny Welbeck in blue and white, each performing well recently.
