Prediction, Odds & Betting tips for Brighton vs. Manchester United at English Premier League
The Seagulls are playing one of the most entertaining football in England. But not only that, they are in the upper part of the standings, having a chance to reach the international stage. All the other rivals ahead of this unit have one or even two games more played than Roberto De Zerbi’s crew. United is in the Champions League zone but needs to keep on playing at a high level. That’s why they have to stay unbeaten at the Amex.
Brighton
The Seagulls have a perfectly formed team. This adjustable unit plays fast, modern, and extremely lethal football. Despite losing Graham Potter early on, Brighton kept playing at the same level with De Zerbi in charge.
They are one of the most efficient teams in the Premiership, but not because of one particular striker. Brighton’s goals are well-distributed throughout the entire unit, with MacAllister having eight scores, March and Mitoma one fewer, and Gross six.
In six of the previous nine appearances at Amex, this unit netted at least twice, while also providing five clean sheets.
Manchester United
The Red Devils had everything in their hands in London against Tottenham but wasted everything in the second half. It was yet another display of United’s inconsistency, which has been the main problem of the team since the campaign started.
They have an EFL Cup trophy and are in the finals of the FA Cup, but on the other hand, the shameful exit from the Europa League, and the inability to play a more prominent role in the Premiership are something that frustrates the fans.
Their form on the road has been shaky, with subsequent wins and losses for a number of games before a draw in London. What is frequent are events with goals on just one side, with eight happening in the past 10.
Brighton & Hove Albion: Steele; Veltman, Dunk, Webster, Estupinan; Caicedo, Gross; March, Mac Allister, Mitoma; Welbeck
Manchester United: De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw; Eriksen, Casemiro, Sabitzer; Antony, Martial, Rashford
United recently eliminated the Seagulls from the FA Cup semifinals, having to go through the penalty shootout following 120 minutes without goals. In the first Premier League game this year, Brighton was better at the Old Trafford, 1-2.
We are backing the hosts to win here because of their solid form and the motive for avenging the defeat in the FA Cup. They were better than United in that one, and it’s time to show that once again. Manchester doesn’t have the needed consistency on the road and looks mediocre away from home.
Our verdict: Brighton wins
