Manchester United vs Brighton preview
Manchester United welcome Brighton on Saturday in a very intriguing Premier League duel.
The Seagulls have had a bit of an up-and-down start to the season, but when they’re up, they’re very much flying.
Last time out saw them thump Newcastle 3-1 in a full-throttle performance, which went some way to getting back on track after a 3-1 home defeat to West Ham previously.
As for United, it’s difficult to sum their start to the season up, other than putting it down as ‘bumpy’.
They weren’t convincing when beating Wolves on matchday one and were even less so in losing to Tottenham.
A come-from-behind win over Nottingham Forest followed before that late, late defeat to Arsenal before the break.
United thought they’d won it towards the end, only for the Gunners to bang in two late goals against a centre back pairing of Harry Maguire and Jonny Evans.
Rasmus Hojlund made his first appearance from the bench after injury and played over 70 minutes across Denmark’s games in the break, so he should be slowing getting back up to speed.
But with off-field problems for Antony and Jadon Sancho, it’s not all rosy in Manchester at present.

Manchester United vs Brighton betting tips
Brighton to win and both teams to score at 17/5 – CLAIM HERE
They’re probably the most exciting team to watch in the division at present and Brighton could show that here.
United haven’t had a decent performance at home this season yet and it’s difficult to see their defence – whoever makes it in the back four – coping with the sheer pace and power that the visitors have to offer.
Old Trafford is a big pitch and their expansive football will suit it perfectly.
Both teams have scored in every one of their games so far.
Solly March to score or assist at 13/8 – CLAIM HERE
Much has been spoken about Mitoma and Ferguson as March continues to fly under the radar.
He scored twice in the Seagulls’ last away game and on the opening day too.
Two games without a goal could see him fire back here, or set up one of his forward friends.
Casemiro to be carded at 6/4 – CLAIM HERE
After a string of yellow cards last season, the Brazilian is yet to find his way into a whistler’s notebook this season.
That could change here with the fast-pace football the Brighton trio in midfield will play.
Their transitional play will cause United problems and the enforcer in the middle could find himself isolated at times, which has been a theme for the Reds this campaign.
