Man United vs Brighton Tips

Tip 1

Fabian Hurzeler’s side are unbeaten in their last six, losing only four times across the entire league campaign and seeing this bet land in 17 out of 21 PL fixtures.

Don’t be fooled by United’s recent upturn in form – we’ve been here before. This sample is too small to decide whether ‘they’re back’ or if these results are merely papering over the cracks once again.

They went behind against 20th placed Southampton and were rescued by individual brilliance from Amad Diallo midweek, while not to mention that Amorim’s troops lost four straight matches before the draw with Liverpool.

Tip 2

Brighton have a strong recent record against United, losing only one of the last seven, drawing one and winning an incredible five.

Liverpool, Tottenham, Forest, Bournemouth and Newcastle have all walked away with maximum points from Old Trafford in the top flight this term, so it would be no surprise to see Brighton added to that list; especially when they’ve won on their last two visits here.

Man United Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up

The Red Devils once again found themselves in a precarious position on Thursday when going a goal down to Southampton at home, however, a late Amad Diallo hat-trick over the space of 12 minutes ensured their upturn in form continued.

Ruben Amorim is able to welcome Diogo Dalot back to the fold from suspension in their FA Cup win over Arsenal, although he will still have to make do without Luke Shaw, Victor Lindelof, Jonny Evans and Mason Mount through injury.

Man United Predicted XI: Onana; De Ligt, Maguire, Martinez; Mazraoui, Eriksen, Ugarte, Dalot; Diallo, Fernandes; Zirkzee.

Brighton Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up

The Seagulls recorded their first league win since 23rd November on Thursday, turning over Ipswich at Portman Road thanks to goals from Kaoru Mitoma and Georginio Rutter.

Brighton’s injury table remains loaded, with Igor Julio, James Milner, Mats Wieffer and Ferdi Kadioglu confirmed absentees, and Diego Gomez, Evan Ferguson and Jack Hinshelwood doubtful.

Brighton Predicted XI: Verbruggen; Veltman, Van Hecke, Dunk, Estupinan; Baleba, O’Riley; Adingra, Rutter, Mitoma; Welbeck.
