Despite an average display vs Southampton last time out, Manchester United managed to win the game courtesy of Amad Diallo’s hat-trick.
Now, the Red Devils will take on Brighton and Hove Albion in the Premier League at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon.

As per team news, Luke Shaw, Mason Mount, Jonny Evans and Victor Lindelof are all been out injured at the moment. Diogo Dalot was suspended in the last game but has returned to feature this weekend.
Expected Man Utd line-up vs Brighton
Andre Onana was impressive in midweek and is expected to keep hold of his place in goal. So, Altay Bayindir would be on the bench.
Leny Yoro was poor vs Southampton so he is likely to be replaced by Harry Maguire at the back. The Englishman should be in the middle and Matthijs de Ligt would be on the right. Lisandro Martínez is expected to complete the back three.
Dalot would return to feature in the RWB position, while Noussair Mazraoui might be on the opposite end.
Manuel Ugarte and Kobbie Mainoo looked tired in the midweek and were taken off early. Therefore, Mainoo could be rested for this game and Toby Collyer could replace him. The 21-year-old may start alongside the Uruguayan in the engine room.
Bruno Fernandes is set to be in one of the CAM positions and Amad should be alongside him following a fantastic hat-trick against the Saints.
Rasmus Hojlund has been the first-choice striker for Man Utd this season but he looked poor in the last couple of games.
Joshua Zirkzee was brighter when he came on in the second half in both matches hence he should get the nod to start in the No.9 role. Here’s how Man Utd could line up against Brighton:
