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.

  12. JBG
    • 7 Years
    5 months, 19 days ago

    Yoro coming in if Gabriel doesn't start.. brain dead Dorgu just cost me potential CS. Idiot

    1. Dannyb
      • 9 Years
      5 months, 19 days ago

      It wasn't even a foul, but a horrible pass in the first place to even find himself in that position.

      1. JBG
        • 7 Years
        5 months, 19 days ago

        Exactly

  13. NoOneCares
      5 months, 19 days ago

      Get another Welbz.

    • TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      5 months, 19 days ago

      Minteh points dodging for too long... this feels overdue

    • Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      5 months, 19 days ago

      Bruno DC points

    • fedolefan
      • 11 Years
      5 months, 19 days ago

      Yeah Lammens, grab that cross and fall to the ground like you pulled off a worldie. Then let a basic free kick go in.

      1. Moon Dog
          5 months, 19 days ago

          He's falling to the ground to waste time.

      2. F4L
        • 11 Years
        5 months, 19 days ago

        casemiro such a loss off the pitch wow

      3. Over Midwicket
        • 14 Years
        5 months, 19 days ago

        Brighton have great fixtures and Welbeck is on pens. He's cheap as chips.

        A better pick over Mateta?

        1. pundit of punts
          • 13 Years
          5 months, 19 days ago

          Minteh for me

          Haaland + Mateta + Woltemade feels good for now

          1. NoOneCares
              5 months, 19 days ago

              That has nothing to do with the post, the world doesn't revolve around your sheite team or posts.

          2. Brosstan
            • 11 Years
            5 months, 19 days ago

            More like 3rd striker alongside Haaland and Mateta

          3. NoOneCares
              5 months, 19 days ago

              I have them both but Welbz as 3rd, wouldn't say over Mateta.

          4. Esraj
            • 10 Years
            5 months, 19 days ago

            Salah starts.

          5. pundit of punts
            • 13 Years
            5 months, 19 days ago

            Can’t wait to do Dorgu + Pedro ➡ Munoz + Mateta this week

          6. fedolefan

            Sesko Cunha OFF Big guns ON

            bruno not near the bonus but on 23 bps with no return lol

          8. Brosstan
            • 11 Years
            5 months, 19 days ago

            United's depth is very poor. Ugarte, Dorgu, Zirkzee etc is what they have to bring on..

          9. WVA
            • 9 Years
            5 months, 19 days ago

            No Minteh assist on FPL?

            1. F4L
              • 11 Years
              5 months, 19 days ago

              if he doesnt yet he will for sure

              1. F4L
                • 11 Years
                5 months, 19 days ago

                *get the assist

          10. Dank Squid
            • 7 Years
            5 months, 19 days ago

            Considered Minteh but he rarely scores. Assist merchant (was in my original 2024/2025 team but then got injured). 6.0m, defenders provide more value

          11. fedolefan
            • 11 Years
            5 months, 19 days ago

            Hopeless Minteh. Just wants to hug the touchline.

            Mbeumo becoming an option?

            1. Differentiator
              • 10 Years
              5 months, 19 days ago

              always was

              1. NoOneCares
                  5 months, 19 days ago

                  No he wasn't, utter nonsense.

                Blank or a single return/game (so far). 8m, no pens

              Salah hattrick today to rustle things up?

                • 4 Years
                5 months, 19 days ago

                Let him get 1 goal first

            4. F4L
              • 11 Years
              5 months, 19 days ago

              bruno has been immense today. unfortunate on the lack of attacking return front
