Brighton Manchester United match preview

Manchester United seeks to win new points against unpredictable Brighton. How much the Seagulls are tough can be best seen through their last year match at the very same stadium where the home team won by 1-0, while before that the United won at its Old Trafford in the league and League Cup. Let’s add that the United won Leicester at home in the first round this season, while Brighton lost away to Watford.

Brighton

In that way Brigthon continued with practice established last season when it was the worst away team in the league, but they have managed to compensate all that with excellent results at home, where they lost just four out of 19 matches. Right those points won at home have helped them to survive in the elite football league in England, which they joined last year after even 34 years of absence, which definitely created an additional pressure on team led by manager Hughton.

We have said that in the end Brighton managed to overcome the returnee crisis and they have decided to bring new even eight new players this summer, while at the same time they kept all starters from previous season. Right because of that manager Hughton had decided that out of newcomers only Bernardo gets a chance against Watford, while now we expect to several of them in the starting line-up; Montoya, Bissoum and Jahanbakhsh, especially as out of action are injured defender Bruno, midfielder Izquierdo and forward Andone.

Probable lineups Brighton: Ryan – Montoya, Duffy, Dunk, Bernardo – Propper, Bissouma – Jahanbakhsh, Gross,March – Murray

Manchester United

Regarding the guests from Manchester, we have said in the introduction that the United won all three points from home match with Leicester, but we need to add that they haven’t left a particularly good impression. The United scored both goals thanks to mistakes of Leicester players, while goalkeeper de Gea had to take ball from his own net in the injury time, which very much angered manager Mourinho.

Still, he said later on that the most important thing for his team that it won the first match of the new season. That should decrease pressure on the players in the away match with Brighton, but they are all aware of another tough match ahead of them. Regarding the team, compared to match with Leicester we expect two new players in the line-up from the first minute, Lukaku and Young, while due to injuries and tiredness goalkeeper Romero, defenders Valencia, Dalot and Roja, midfielders Matic and Herrerate, and winger Lingard should skip the match.

Probable lineups Manchester United: de Gea – Young, Bailly, Lindelof, Shaw –Fred, Pereira, Pogba – Mata, Lukaku, Sanchez

Verdict:

Of course, the guests from Manchester are favourites to win the match but everyone in Brighton is fully aware that wouldn’t be good at all if they lose for the second time in a row at the start of new season. Therefore, we believe that Brighton will try to win at least one point using more defensive approach.
