Man Utd versus Brighton & Hove Albion – English top flight Live Coverage
Preamble
Man Utd, having just beaten Sunderland and Liverpool, look to make it three Premier League wins in a row this evening. They have momentum managed by Ruben Amorim for the very first time!
However, their visitors tonight are Brighton & Hove Albion, who have won in their previous three visits to Old Trafford, winning six from seven fixtures head-to-head.
Forget the momentum; for the Seagulls very comfortable. That said, Brighton themselves remain as gloriously unpredictable similar to their opponents, therefore the fixture appears competing and maybe thrilling to watch.

Team News
Man Utd have made two changes in the wake of last week’s victory at Anfield last weekend. Šeško starts replacing Mount, now on the substitutes, while last week’s win-securing hero Maguire misses out at all, Yoro replaces him at the back.
Maguire picked up an injury this week in practice. Tyrell Malacia is named in a Premier League squad this campaign.
The Seagulls opted for one change post-success against versus Newcastle. It’s ostensibly a defensive one, bringing in De Cuyper replacing Gómez, who drops to the bench.
The striker, a member of the last Manchester United squad champions in during the 2012-13 season, visits his old club on a hot streak scoring four in three, one more than he’d managed in his previous 15.
Pre-Match Patter
Ruben Amorim doesn’t much care about the views of the Reds’ manager … yet Welbeck is mindful with the thought processes from the German coach.
It is widely discussed the fixture might affect their campaigns as the Premier League continues.
Star performers include the captain for United and Danny Welbeck in blue and white, both on song lately.
