Manchester United vs Brighton prediction: How will Premier League fixture play out today?
Brighton and Hove Albion manager Graham Potter has insisted he’s “comfortable” with the makeup of his squad as the new Premier League season starts, despite the sale of key wing-back Marc Cucurella.
“I’m happy with what we’ve done and I’m happy with the squad,” he said before the trip to Manchester United.
“While the window’s open you never know and you always have to be on your toes but it’s better to be anticipatory rather than reactionary. We’ve got a good squad with some good players, ambitious, a mix of old and new. We’re quite comfortable with where we’re at.”
The Seagulls hammered United 4-0 on home soil at the end of last season and will be looking to build on their ninth-place finish.

Prediction
Man United players have a whole lot of reasons to find a big performance and a result in this season opener, and not just because of the new manager. Last season’s dismal defeat should still sting enough to force a reaction. United 2-1 Brighton.
