Game Overview
Manchester United will host Brighton at Old Trafford with a chance to achieve a feat not accomplished in 51 games under manager Ruben Amorim – winning three Premier League matches consecutively. Despite only one three-match winning streak achieved in all competitions, this victory could signify a turning point for the Red Devils.
As they sit ninth in the league after triumphing over Sunderland and Liverpool, a win would indicate significant progress as they aim to return to European contention. The impact of new player Mason Mount on their performance has been felt, especially with improved pressing. However, this will be tested against Brighton.
