Manchester United vs Brighton Match Preview Premier League 2025-26
Manchester United are finally hitting form under Ruben Amorim, securing back-to-back league wins for the first time in his 11-month tenure. After a 2-0 home victory over Sunderland, the Red Devils stunned Liverpool 2-1 at Anfield, their first win there since 2016. These results have lifted United to ninth in the Premier League, just three points behind second-placed Manchester City. At Old Trafford, United have won their last three league matches against Sunderland, Chelsea, and Burnley, but Brighton remain a tricky opponent, having ended United’s last extended home winning streak with a 3-1 victory in August 2023.
Brighton, managed by Fabian Hurzeler, have been inconsistent but capable of upsetting top teams, with wins over Chelsea and Newcastle recently. Former United striker Danny Welbeck has been key, scoring twice in the last match to lift Brighton to 10th in the table. Despite defensive struggles and difficulty holding leads, the Seagulls have lost only two of their last 13 top-flight games and come to Old Trafford confident, having won their last three league visits—a feat only Manchester City managed between 1968 and 1972.
Manchester United vs Brighton Team News - Premier League 2025-26
Manchester United Team News
Manchester United are in their healthiest shape under Ruben Amorim, with Lisandro Martínez the only confirmed absentee. Harry Maguire and Mason Mount are minor doubts, though Amorim appears unconcerned.
After a successful striker-less setup at Anfield, Amorim may reintroduce a focal point upfront. Benjamin Šeško has been adapting well in recent weeks and could start, potentially replacing Mount in the lineup.
Manchester United Predicted XI
Lammens; De Ligt, Maguire, Shaw; Amad, Casemiro, Fernandes, Dorgu; Mbeumo, Cunha; Šeško
Brighton Team News
Brighton’s injury concerns are more significant. Kaoru Mitoma, Brajan Gruda, and Joel Veltman are doubtful, while Diego Gómez is back in contention. Long-term absentees include Jack Hinshelwood, Adam Webster, and Solly March. Danny Welbeck leads the attack, with Carlos Baleba a key player to watch after last week’s brace against Newcastle.
Brighton Predicted XI
Verbruggen; Wieffer, Van Hecke, Dunk, De Cuyper; Baleba, Ayari; Minteh, Rutter, Gómez; Welbeck
