Old Trafford. 3:00pm, Saturday 16th September 2023
Manchester United will aim to haul themselves into the top half of the Premier League table when they entertain Brighton & Hove Albion at Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon at 3pm.
The Red Devils have been a mixed bag in the early stages of the 2023/24 campaign and currently languish in 11th position in the Premier League table. Weekend opponents Brighton & Hove Albion sit in the Premier League top six as things stand with just three points separating them from league leaders Manchester City.
United’s form has been little to write home about thus far and off-field concerns surrounding the club ownership have hardly helped manager Erik ten Hag’s cause. Indeed United fans will be desperate for the continuing dramas around the club to be a thing of the past.
The Red Devils’ four league outings have returned two away defeats and two home wins, their latest setback coming against Arsenal who put Ten Hag’s men to the sword to the tune of 3-1. While the United boss will have one eye on the upcoming Champions League clash with Bayern Munich, the side must concentrate on their weekend Premier League clash against a Brighton side who won the corresponding fixture last season by a scoreline of 2-1.
Brighton are also in European action next week when they do battle with AEK Athens in the Europa League and given that they have found the back of the net in all of their last fifteen league outings on the road, we envisage them breaching the Red Devils rearguard on Saturday afternoon. This will be a closely fought encounter and it is difficult to look past the spoils being shared at the Theatre of Dreams, therefore we’ll be siding for this match to end all-square at best odds of 3/1.
