Man Utd v Brighton – Premier League Live Coverage
Match Preview
Manchester United, coming off victories against Liverpool and Sunderland, aim for three consecutive successes on the bounce this evening. Confidence is high managed by Ruben Amorim now more than ever!
Yet, their visitors tonight come from the south coast, with victories during three consecutive away games at Manchester United’s home, winning six from seven fixtures between the clubs.
Forget the momentum; Brighton have found it’s been a breeze. Nevertheless, the visitors are also as gloriously unpredictable similar to their opponents, making this match competing and maybe highly entertaining.

Team News
Man Utd have made two changes following last week’s victory against Liverpool. Benjamin Šeško comes in for Mason Mount, relegated to the bench, and the match-winner Maguire misses out at all, Yoro steps in at the back.
An issue arose during training this week. Malacia makes the squad on the bench for the first time this season.
The Seagulls opted for a single switch post-success against versus Newcastle. It’s ostensibly a defensive one, swapping in De Cuyper replacing Gómez, now among the subs.
Danny Welbeck, ex-United player that lifted the title in 2012-13, comes back to Manchester in fine form scoring four in three, one more than he’d managed in his previous 15.
