Our Manchester United vs Brighton & Hove Albion Prediction Sees Red Devils See Off Seagulls

Bet on Man United vs Southampton

Can United Build on the Saints Success?

Amad Diallo was the hero for Man United on Thursday, scoring a late treble to give Ruben Amorim’s men a much-needed three points. Victory over the Saints was United’s first league success since the Manchester derby in mid-December.

Brighton also picked up three points in the week, with goals from Kaoru Mitoma and Georginio Rutter giving Fabian Hurzeler’s side a 2-0 win at Ipswich Town. Albion had not won in the Premier League since November.

United still have work to do to secure a top-half finish this season. Amorim’s men are down in 12th place after seven wins, five draws, and nine defeats. The Seagulls are five points ahead in ninth.

After seeing off Arsenal in the FA Cup and coming from behind to beat Southampton, Man United will be desperate to keep the momentum ticking. However, Brighton are tough to beat, and Hurzeler’s side will want a positive result in Manchester.

Brighton claimed a narrow win when these two squared off at the Amex Stadium in August. The match was heading for a 1-1 stalemate, but Joao Pedro netted in injury time to secure the points for the Seagulls.

Albion also won when the teams last met at Old Trafford, with Danny Welbeck, Pascal Gross, and Pedro on target in a 3-1 victory. Brighton have won five of the last seven league and cup meetings.
