Match Stats

Brighton:

Brighton & Hove Albion will look to build on their strong start to the Premier League season when they face Manchester United at the Amex Stadium. Under the guidance of the league's youngest manager, Fabian Hurzeler, Brighton secured an impressive 3-0 win over Everton in their opener. Goals from Kaoru Mitoma, Danny Welbeck, and Simon Adingra highlighted their dominance, and the Seagulls have also shown solid form in pre-season, including a 4-0 victory against Villarreal. Historically, Brighton has had the upper hand over Manchester United in recent encounters, including a 4-0 home win in May 2022, which will boost their confidence.


Man Utd:

Manchester United will aim to improve on their narrow 1-0 victory against Fulham as they travel to Brighton. Joshua Zirkzee's late goal secured the win, but United had a slow start and faced challenges throughout the match. Manager Erik ten Hag will be hoping the win boosts his team’s confidence, but they have struggled at the Amex Stadium in the past, with a 43% loss rate against Brighton being their highest against any Premier League opponent. As they finish August with this fixture, United will be keen to continue their winning ways before facing a tough run of fixtures in September.
