Manchester United vs Brighton

Manchester United will be looking to build on a fine win over the Champions when they host Brighton in an English Premier League fixture on Saturday.

The Red Devils will be feeling confident after claiming back-to-back wins for the first time under Ruben Amorim. The visitors are also showing some good form lately, and with both teams often playing on the front foot, goals could be expected here.

Manchester United News

Manchester United are coming off a 2-1 victory at Liverpool last time out in the Premier League. It was a fine all-round performance from the Red Devils, with goals from Bryan Mbeumo and Harry Maguire earning them the win.

That was the second straight victory for Manchester United, who also picked up a 2-0 win over Sunderland in their previous fixture. That result also extends a solid home record as Amorim's side have now won their last three matches at Old Trafford.

Manchester United are beginning to show some attacking quality and have scored first in their last three home matches. However, they are without a clean sheet in eight of their last nine matches across all competitions, with six of those fixtures producing over 2.5 goals.

Brighton News

Brighton were also victorious last time out in the Premier League, earning a 2-1 home win over Newcastle United. Goals in each half from Danny Welbeck were enough to earn them all three points.

That result maintains a solid recent record for Brighton, who are unbeaten in their last five matches, picking up three wins on this run. Fabian Hurzeler's team are also unbeaten in four of their last five away matches across all competitions, with a 3-1 victory at Chelsea among their results.

Like the hosts, goals are not a problem for Brighton, who have scored in nine of their last 10 matches across all competitions. However, they have conceded in eight of those matches, while seven fixtures on this run have produced over 2.5 goals.

Head to Head

Manchester United have seven wins while Brighton have picked up six victories, with two draws in the last 15 matches. However, the visitors did the double last season, winning 2-1 at home before a 3-1 away victory in the reverse fixture.

Verdict

Man Utd v Brighton

There are always goals in the fixture, and with both teams scoring in four of the last five meetings, a repeat could be considered. All four fixtures have also produced over 2.5 goals, and a similar outcome is on the cards here.

Manchester United look confident at the moment and have grabbed the opening goal in their last three home matches. They could be backed to score first in Saturday's clash.
