Latest Manchester United vs Brighton team news
Saturday's match may still be too soon for Manchester United defender Lisandro Martinez, even though he has made good progress in his recovery from a serious knee injury sustained in February and could return to training this week.
Leny Yoro is striving to compete for a starting spot at centre-back, potentially replacing one of three players: Maguire, Matthijs de Ligt, or Luke Shaw. Coach Amorim is also considering whether to continue using Amad Diallo and Diogo Dalot as wing-backs, or to move Patrick Dorgu back to the left flank.
Benjamin Sesko, who had scored in two consecutive Premier League games before being benched against Liverpool, could return to the starting lineup in place of Mason Mount. Up front, he could be supported by Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo – who only has a better Premier League goalscoring and assist record against Southampton (8 times) than against Brighton (6 times – 3 goals, 3 assists).
For Brighton, Solly March and Adam Webster (both knee injuries) and Jack Hinshelwood (ankle) remain absent. Meanwhile, Kaoru Mitoma (ankle), Joel Veltman (calf), Diego Gomez (hip), and Brajan Gruda (knee) will be further assessed before kick-off.
Maxim De Cuyper could compete for the left-back spot with Ferdi Kadioglu, but if Mitoma and Gomez are not fit enough to play, De Cuyper will most likely be pushed up to play left winger, as he did in the win against Newcastle.
Carlos Baleba – a player rumored to be moving to Man United – could start in midfield. Meanwhile, Welbeck – who has scored four goals in his last three Premier League games – could continue to start alongside Georginio Rutter and Yankuba Minteh in attack.

Latest Manchester United vs Brighton football match prediction
Manchester United have gone through several difficult periods this season, but are currently in high spirits after winning two consecutive Premier League matches – their first such achievement under manager Ruben Amorim, almost a year since his appointment. Prior to this, their last two wins were the final two games of the 2023-24 season and the opening game of the 2024-25 season.
Following a deserved 2-0 home win against Sunderland, the Red Devils continued their surprise run by beating a struggling Liverpool 2-1 at Anfield last weekend, thanks to goals from Bryan Mbeumo and Harry Maguire – their first home win since Louis van Gaal's arrival in 2016.
The victory against the reigning champions was a major turning point for manager Amorim, who had been given a three-year opportunity by minority shareholder Sir Jim Ratcliffe to prove himself at Old Trafford. With this result, Man United climbed to ninth place in the Premier League table, just three points behind second-placed Man City.
Man United will return to Old Trafford – where they have won their last three Premier League matches against Sunderland, Chelsea and Burnley. This equals their total wins in their previous 13 home games (2 draws, 8 defeats). The last time they had a longer home winning streak was from April to August 2023 (8 matches), which was ended by a 1-3 defeat to Brighton.
In fact, Man United have struggled against Brighton in recent years, losing 6 of their last 7 Premier League encounters (winning 1) – double the number of defeats they suffered in their first 17 meetings (winning 12, drawing 2, losing 3).
Since their 1-2 defeat to Bournemouth in mid-September, Brighton have alternated between wins and draws in their last four Premier League matches, including victories of 3-1 against Chelsea and 2-1 against Newcastle.
Former Manchester United player Danny Welbeck was the center of attention in Brighton's victory over Newcastle, scoring a brace, including the winning goal in the 84th minute, securing all three points. The Seagulls are now 10th in the table, just one point behind Manchester United.
Despite winning 3 of their first 8 matches of the season, and leading in 2 of their 3 draws (losing 2), Fabian Hurzeler's team spent most of their games trailing (38.1%) or drawing (37.8%), while only leading 24.1% of the time.
Brighton's defense continues to be a weakness, with the team keeping only one clean sheet in their last 20 Premier League games – a 2-0 win away at Wolves in May. However, they have only lost two of their last 13 league matches (seven wins, four draws).
Brighton have reason to be confident ahead of their trip to Old Trafford, having won all three of their most recent away matches against Man United in the Premier League. The last team to achieve this feat was Man City, with a run of five consecutive wins there from 1968 to 1972.
