Manchester United vs Brighton Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League
by Kennedy Kechula | in Premier League Predictions
Manchester United have a second straight home match in the Premier League as they welcome Brighton to Old Trafford. It hasn’t been a fulfilling campaign for either side so far and we have a prediction below. Heading into this match, the Red Devils have risen to 12th in the standings while Brighton are ninth.
Five points separate the two sides ahead of their weekend engagement, Brighton having garnered 31 points so far. Manchester United are yet to hit the 30-point mark but will be positive coming into this game. Brighton can also afford to carry a level of confidence into this match. The Seagulls have lately done well against Manchester United, winning five of the last six Premier League meetings.
Manchester United will surely be wary of the threat Brighton carry here, having lost this fixture the last two times they hosted it in the league. Can United end their jinxed run against Brighton, or will the visitors put a stamp on their bogey status?

Manchester United - Brighton: Form Analysis
Manchester United left it late before beating bottom side Southampton 3-1 at Old Trafford on Thursday. That game bore all the hallmarks of United’s struggles this season and though on paper it looks comfortable, the win was anything but.
Ruben Amorim will at least be happy to see his charges avoid a fourth straight league loss at home. That win was also their first in regular time across their last seven matches.
It marked a third straight unbeaten outing and the Red Devils will be charged up for this. United’s recent matches against Brighton haven't guaranteed great results and the home team will be keen on a change.
Manchester United managed one league win in the last six matches against Brighton!
Brighton will have a good feeling about this game, having established bogey status against United in their recent meetings.
The Seagulls come into this match having posted five wins in their last six league games against Manchester United. Among these wins were their most recent two visits to Old Trafford.
Brighton are here seeking a double over their hosts, having won the first leg 2-1. They are boosted by their recent run, coming here on a six-match unbeaten run.
Fabian Hurzeler’s men have suffered defeat only twice in their last 12 matches. in their most recent game, they claimed a 2-0 win at Ipswich Town.

Manchester United & Brighton Squad Analysis
Manchester United are set to have a boost in this game with the return from suspension of Diogo Dalot. The defender missed the Southampton win after his red card against Arsenal in the FA Cup.
There will also be a lot of talk about Amad Diallo after his incredible late hat trick last time out. The Ivorian is a sure starter here, as Amorim looks to reap on his current form.
Uncertainty over Marcus Rashford continues and he may not feature in this game. However, Mason Mount, Luke Shaw, Victor Lindelof and Jonny Evans are all confirmed absentees with injury.
Brighton’s Danny Welbeck has six goals against his former team, Manchester United.
Brighton will come into this game with a bigger chunk of players in the treatment room. That is despite having some reprieve in the last game with the availability of Tariq Lamptey, Joao Pedro and Yankuba Minteh.
On their injury list, there’s still some key names, including Igor Julio, Ferdi Kadioglu, James Milner and Mats Wieffer.
One interesting name that could appear in the starting team is Danny Welbeck’s. The former Manchester United forward has had a prolific run against the Red Devils and will fancy his chances, having just returned from injury.
Georginio Rutter scored three in the last two matches and will also be a contender for a starting berth.

Our Manchester United vs Brighton Prediction
While they are coming from a win, Manchester United weren’t really impressive in their match against Southampton. It actually took glaring errors from the Saints to hand United the win on a platter. Brighton will offer a stiffer opposition and United know this, going by the two teams’ recent engagements.
Three times in their last four home league matches, United lost. They also lost five times in six matches against Brighton. This run could return to haunt them here as they’ve lost the fear factor at home. Our prediction for Manchester United v Brighton is that Brighton wins the match.
Manchester United vs Brighton - Other Interesting Predictions
Both teams to score.
In three of Brighton’s last five league matches, both teams scored. Notably, Brighton haven't failed to score in the league away from home this season. They will seek to reap from Manchester United’s defensive struggles.
Manchester United have, however, picked up well in recent matches and will be hard to shut out completely as well. Our second prediction, therefore, is for both teams to score.
