Man Utd versus Brighton – Premier League Match Report
Introduction
The Red Devils, after defeating Liverpool and Sunderland, aim for three Premier League wins on the bounce in this match. They have momentum under Ruben Amorim for the very first time!
However, their visitors tonight come from the south coast, who have won on each of their last three trips at the Theatre of Dreams, plus six out of seven encounters in this rivalry.
Forget the momentum; for the Seagulls relatively easy. Nevertheless, Brighton themselves remain famously erratic similar to their opponents, therefore the fixture appears both fascinating and potentially highly entertaining.
Kick-off is at 17:30 BST a final reminder for now because remember the clocks fall back tonight, folks. Game on!

Selection Changes
United decided on a couple of alterations in the wake of the Anfield triumph against Liverpool. Benjamin Šeško comes in replacing Mount, relegated to the bench, plus the decisive scorer Harry Maguire doesn’t feature at all, Yoro replaces him at the back.
He sustained a knock this week in practice. Malacia makes the squad in a Premier League squad this campaign.
The Seagulls opted for one alteration post-success against over Newcastle. Seemingly a tactical shift, including Maxim De Cuyper replacing Gómez, on the bench.
The striker, a member of the last Manchester United squad champions in back in 2013, visits his old club with great momentum with four recent goals, exceeding his tally over his last 15 matches.

It is widely discussed the fixture could have implications their respective fortunes in the top flight continues.
