Man Utd versus Brighton & Hove Albion – Premier League Live Coverage
Match Preview
The Red Devils, after defeating Liverpool and Sunderland, are targeting three consecutive successes on the bounce in this match. Confidence is high with Ruben Amorim in charge currently!
Yet, Brighton come from the south coast, with victories during three consecutive away games at Manchester United’s home, and six of the last seven League meetings in this rivalry.
Never mind the wind behind; it’s been straightforward very comfortable. That said, the visitors are also consistently inconsistent like United, therefore the fixture appears intriguing and possibly highly entertaining.
