Introduction
Man Utd, coming off victories against Liverpool and Sunderland, aim for three consecutive successes in a row tonight. The wind’s behind them with Ruben Amorim in charge now more than ever!
However, Brighton are Brighton & Hove Albion, who have won on each of their last three trips at Manchester United’s home, winning six from seven League meetings in this rivalry.
Despite United’s form; it’s been straightforward relatively easy. Having said all that, Brighton are otherwise consistently inconsistent like United, so this game is intriguing and possibly rollickingly good entertainment.

Selection Changes
Man Utd have made two adjustments after their 2-1 win at Anfield last weekend. Benjamin Šeško comes in instead of Mount, who drops to the bench, and the match-winner Maguire is absent entirely, Yoro steps in at the back.
He sustained a knock in midweek sessions. Tyrell Malacia is named on the bench for the first time this season.
Brighton & Hove Albion make a single switch following victory at home versus Newcastle. Seemingly a tactical shift, including Maxim De Cuyper replacing Gómez, who drops to the bench.
Danny Welbeck, a member of the last Manchester United squad to win the Premier League back in 2013, comes back to Manchester with great momentum of four goals in three games, exceeding his tally from 15 prior games.
Build-Up
The manager pays little heed about the views of Arne Slot … while Welbeck is focused about the considerations by the former Chelsea manager.
It is widely discussed that this match might affect for both teams’ seasons in the top flight campaign progresses.
Key players to watch include Fernandes for United and Danny Welbeck from the away side, both in fine form recently.
