Starting lineup
Pre-match information
After the 2024-2025 Premier League opener, Brighton is the team topped the rankings with the biggest win (3-0 against Everton). Manchester United also have 3 points, but the gap between the two teams is 6 places in the rankings.
Because Man United only beat Fulham 1-0 in the opening match at Old Trafford. After tonight's Amex match, only one team will continue to win, or both will not be able to connect the winning streak to 2 matches.
Brighton are a tough opponent for Man United, having won four of their last six meetings. But it is worth noting that the away teams have won more - 4 times in the last 6 matches (Brighton 2, Man United 2).
Man United had better performances in the match against Fulham, however, finishing is still an unresolved problem, even when rookie Joshua Zirkzee scored the decisive goal.
That goal could give the Dutch striker a starting spot in tonight's match, returning Bruno Fernandes to the role of playmaker. Alejandro Garnacho could also start, despite missing an unbelievable opportunity against Fulham.
In terms of personnel, the home team is without Solly March, Bart Verbruggen, Evan Ferguson, Julio Enciso and Pervis Estupinan due to injury. The possibility of Billy Gilmour and Yankuba Minteh playing is still uncertain.
With the "Red Devils", the absentees list includes Leny Yoro, Tyrell Malacia, Rasmus Hojlund and Luke Shaw also due to injury. Victor Lindelof and Jadon Sancho are uncertain to play.
