The penultimate Premier League match of the day is a fixture that has caused Manchester United plenty of problems in recent years.

Brighton and Hove Albion have won six of their last seven league meetings with their hosts, including all three of their most recent games at Old Trafford.

Kick-off in tonight’s encounter between the Red Devils and the Seagulls is at 17:30 BST.

TEAM NEWS

There are two changes for the hosts this evening, both of which were expected.

The two players dropping out are the pre-advertised injury doubts, Mason Mount and Harry Maguire. Mount is among the substitutes, with Maguire not involved at all.

Benjamin Sesko and Leny Yoro come into Ruben Amorim’s starting XI.

There’s just the one alteration for the visitors.

Fabian Hurzeler brings in Maxim De Cuyper for Diego Gomez, which will likely see Ferdi Kadioglu pushed further up into an ‘out of position’ left-wing role.

LINE-UPS

Manchester United XI: Lammens, Yoro, De Ligt, Shaw, Diallo, Casemiro, Bruno Fernandes, Dalot, Mbeumo, Cunha, Sesko. 

Subs: Bayindir, Mazraoui, Zirkzee, Dorgu, Malacia, Ugarte, Heaven, Mount, Mainoo.

Brighton and Hove Albion XI: Verbruggen, Wieffer, Van Hecke, Dunk, De Cuyper, Baleba, Ayari, Minteh, Rutter, Kadioglu, Welbeck. 

Subs: Steele, Tzimas, Watson, Kostoulas, Milner, Boscagli, Gomez, Coppola, Oriola.

        They are quietly chipping away, up to 4th today with this win. Slapped Liverpool last week so badly that they had to have a team meeting.

                That's not how irony works

                  Don’t get all technical 😆
                  They posted a comment looking for a reaction from someone and you gave it.

                    Technical?

          Quite a Slow Job

      Haters aren’t ready to hear this

    3. F4L
      • 11 Years
      5 months, 21 days ago

      😛 they will push top 4

      if they can get elliot anderson in for next season as casemiro not getting any younger, they'd go up another level

      1. Herger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 4 Years
        5 months, 21 days ago

        It’s not so much about the players, it’s more about the Utd aura and now it’s there for all to see

    4. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 months, 21 days ago

      lol

      European football of any sort would be considered a big success. Even that’s getting far ahead of ourselves

      The people hated Jesus because he told them the truth

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 9 Years
        5 months, 21 days ago

        Myth vs Myth

  2. WVA
    • 9 Years
    5 months, 21 days ago

    Bruno will still get max baps whatever happens

  3. tucaoneo
    • 7 Years
    5 months, 21 days ago

    ManU 3 wins in a row. Now I have seen everything.

  4. OverTinker
    • 7 Years
    5 months, 21 days ago

    DM Bruno no chance of a return

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      5 months, 21 days ago

      Naa

  5. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    5 months, 21 days ago

    J. Pedro an easy sell then?

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 months, 21 days ago

      Yes

    2. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      5 months, 21 days ago

      Yes. Looking at how its going i think I will finally relent and do Pedro Bruno Andersen to Mateta Gakpo Munoz

  6. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    5 months, 21 days ago

    Too ragey?

    Sanchez, VdV, Pedro to Raya, Munoz, Mateta -8.

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 months, 21 days ago

      Don’t make the gk transfer

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        5 months, 21 days ago

        I hate Sanchez. I will feel cleansed.

        1. FPL Blow-In
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          5 months, 21 days ago

          Hit for a gk is something I don’t like but Raya may be an exception long term. Who is your second gk?

          1. The Bandit
            • 15 Years
            5 months, 21 days ago

            Dub, won’t start him very often. Sanchez has Spurs and Raya has Burnley, so could get the 4pts back immediately and save having to do the transfer next week.

            1. Baps Hunter
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 8 Years
              5 months, 21 days ago

              Valid strategy. Big chance to be lucky and get extra transfer for "free".

            2. FPL Blow-In
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              5 months, 21 days ago

              The opposite could also happen, Spurs have been awful and Burnley good at home. Then Chelsea are home to Wolves while Arsenal are away to second in the table

              1. The Bandit
                • 15 Years
                5 months, 21 days ago

                Sure, but it’s a transfer I won’t have to make later, and it will pay in the long term. Happy to go with it.

    Time to shine Mbeumo

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      5 months, 21 days ago

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 8 Years
        5 months, 21 days ago

  9. Stranger Mings
    • 5 Years
    5 months, 21 days ago

    James, Acheampong & enzo too much for wc10?

    1. tucaoneo
      • 7 Years
      5 months, 21 days ago

      Triple Chelsea is ridiculous

      1. Stranger Mings
        • 5 Years
        5 months, 21 days ago

        Maybe just enzo plus who?

        1. tucaoneo
          • 7 Years
          5 months, 21 days ago

          Acheampong because he's cheaper?

          1. Stranger Mings
            • 5 Years
            5 months, 21 days ago

            Yeh maybe but now unsure if secure

    2. Make FPL Casual Again
      • 7 Years
      5 months, 21 days ago

      1. Stranger Mings
        • 5 Years
        5 months, 21 days ago

        Enzo still feels worth it

    3. NoOneCares
        5 months, 21 days ago

        Any Chelsea is ridiculous.

        1. Stranger Mings
          • 5 Years
          5 months, 21 days ago

          Cheap though

    5. NoOneCares
        5 months, 21 days ago

      • Bobby Digital
        • 8 Years
        5 months, 21 days ago

        1. Scapegoat Salah
          • 9 Years
          5 months, 21 days ago

          Szob and Bradley both start too so probably means Salah in his best position, oh no

        2. Stranger Mings
          • 5 Years
          5 months, 21 days ago
