Manchester United vs Brighton Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League

Prediction published on 04/08/2022, 15:57  by Daniel Ngulu in Premier League Prediction

Manchester United will be at home to take on Brighton in their opening game of the Premier League but a highlight of the home team will be the dysfunction it has come to be associated with lately. It hasn’t been a perfect period for United in preseason, with Cristiano Ronaldo stating his desire to leave and being termed a disruptive force despite being their most outstanding player last season. United didn’t have the strongest of finishes in preseason, failing to win in the final three matches and going without a clean sheet in five. Brighton had a strong finish to preseason, beating Espanyol 5-1. After playing five preseason matches, that was their third win, and they’ve only lost once. In the three wins they’ve scored two or more goals, while they have no clean sheet in their last five matches. Three of their last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals and both teams have scored in three of the five games. In the last meeting between these two, Brighton whitewashed United 4-0 in a dominant display at the AMEX Stadium.
