Introduction
Manchester United, after defeating Liverpool and Sunderland, are targeting a trio of victories straight tonight. The wind’s behind them under Ruben Amorim currently!
Yet, Brighton are Brighton & Hove Albion, with victories in their previous three visits at Manchester United’s home, and six of the last seven fixtures in this rivalry.
Forget the momentum; it’s been straightforward it’s been a breeze. Nevertheless, Brighton are otherwise famously erratic similar to their opponents, therefore the fixture appears both fascinating and potentially highly entertaining.
