What’s the current form of Brighton? Not a good look when they buckle up for a trip on the road.

To add, United’s high is that of a team flying 700 000 feet in the air. Good luck to Hughton on his quest to not be the Red Devils’ seventh in as many. If they can set up as well as they did against United’s rivals, Liverpool? They well on their way to maybe stealing a point at best.

Brighton was unbeaten in their last four games prior to the 1-0 loss suffered at the hands of League leaders, Liverpool. The loss was not due to Brighton being totally humiliated but a battle that saw the leaders dig deep.

The Seagulls recorded a win against United earlier this season but a win for Brighton is highly unlikely this time around since Manchester United have been rejuvenated by Mourinho’s departure last month.

Brighton is currently 13th in the League table and are 8 points above the relegation zone. They have been good as any of the top six at the Farlmer stadium but suffered many defeats on the trot.
