Storylines
Manchester United: Ruben Amorim has no new injuries coming into this match but Diogo Dalot, Mason Mount, Victor Lindelof, and Johnny Evans are all unavailable. Marcus Rashford may not play due to ongoing transfer discussions. This is one of the shortest absentee lists for the Red Devils under Amorim’s management.
Predicted XI: Andre Onana, Diogo Dalot, Lisandro Martinez, Matthijs de Ligt, Leny Yoro, Nossair Mazraoui, Casemiro, Cristian Eriksen, Amad Diallo, Bruno Fernandes, Rasmus Hojlund
Brighton: Evan Ferguson and Jick Hinshelwood have slight chances of returning, likely as substitutes, while Simon Adingra could again feature on the wing. Mats Wieffer is also close to a return but it may be too soon for him. James Milner, Ferdi Kadioglu, and Igor Julio are long-term absentees for Brighton.
Predicted XI: Bart Verbruggen, Pervis Estupinan, Lewis Dunk, Jan Paul van Hecke, Joel Veltman, Karu Mitoma, Yasin Ayari, Carlos Baleba, Simon Adingra, Joao Pedro, Danny Welbeck
Prediction
After a tough game midweek, Manchester United is expected to secure a victory at home, taking an early lead and managing the rest of the match.
