Manchester United are aiming to win for the third game in succession when they face a Brighton & Hove Albion team that have had plenty of joy against them in recent years.
The Seagulls have won on their previous three visits to Old Trafford, including a 3–1 triumph earlier this year, and have prevailed in four of the last five meetings against the Red Devils.
Thus, many are suggesting that a win here would indicate more significant progress for United under Ruben Amorim than last week’s 2–1 victory at Liverpool, which came courtesy of Harry Maguire’s late header.
That result meant United claimed back-to-back Premier League wins under Amorim for the very first time, and a third-straight success would suggest to many that the Red Devils are on the right track under their Portuguese coach.
However, they’re taking on a Brighton team that have already defeated Manchester City and Chelsea this term, and are heading into Saturday’s duel in Manchester five games unbeaten in all competitions.
Here isguide to the Red Devils’ upcoming encounter.
