Manchester United will seek to end their poor record at Brighton when the two sides clash in Saturday's early kick off.
Brighton & Hove Albion will host Manchester United at the Amex Stadium on Saturday, aiming to build on their impressive start to the Premier League season. Both teams secured victories in their opening fixtures, setting the stage for a compelling clash.
Brighton kicked off their campaign with a dominant 3-0 win over Everton. Kaoru Mitoma, Danny Welbeck, and Simon Adingra were on the scoresheet, providing glimpses of the Seagulls' potential under new manager Fabian Hurzeler.
Despite missing several key players, Brighton's pre-season form and their recent record against United offer optimism. Last season, United edged out Brighton 2-0 at the Amex, but the Seagulls had claimed a 3-1 win at Old Trafford in September, demonstrating their ability to challenge the Red Devils.
