Manchester United’s inspiring form in 2025 has sparked some optimism among fans. After a hard-earned draw against Liverpool in the Premier League, they eliminated Arsenal in the FA Cup. And in the previous round, they delivered a powerful comeback against Southampton, eventually winning 3-1.
It was Amad Diallo’s heroics that saved the day for Manchester. The Ivorian starlet scored a hat trick in the final 10 minutes of the match. The victory was pivotal in terms of the players’ confidence.
Nevertheless, they still sit 12th in the standings with 26 points. Finishing in the top 4 looks impossible, but United will certainly fight for European competitions.
Apart from injuries, we’ve already got used to the fact that Marcus Rashford is not a part of Ruben Amorim’s plans. Otherwise, no changes are expected in the starting lineup.
Brighton & Hove Albion extended their unbeaten streak in the Premier League to five matches, defeating Ipswich 0-2 on the road. Fabian Hürzeler’s men were better throughout the 90 minutes and won convincingly.
The victory moved Brighton into 9th place, with 31 points in 21 matches. Surprisingly, they’re only four points behind Man City, who occupy the 6th spot in the standings.
Despite some struggles in November-December, Hürzeler’s squad have gradually picked up form and will now take on Manchester United. Interestingly, the visitors have an advantage in recent H2H matches, with 5 victories in their previous 8 games.
Brighton have injury worries ahead of the match, as Igor and Mats Wieffer will not feature. However, the Irish forward, Evan Ferguson, has yet to play a game this year.
Bet hereManchester United’s recent revival might be the beginning of success in Ruben Amorim’s era. Nevertheless, they still have some issues in the defence and struggled to score against Southampton for 80 minutes.
The in-form hosts will certainly have an advantage in this clash, and Brighton aren’t a defensive team. Manchester United usually prefer to play against attacking clubs that leave spaces behind.
While this match will be tough for both sides, we think that the hosts will eventually prevail. Our first pick is Manchester United to win.
Both clubs have experienced problems in the defence this season, each conceding 29 goals already. Manchester United have been troubled with injuries, and Brighton also had issues in the centre of the defence.
The hosts kept a clean sheet in the Premier League on December 1, 2024, when they won 4-0 against Everton. It seems unlikely that they’ll contain Brighton’s fast attackers and will eventually concede.
As for the guests, they’re an entertaining team without impenetrable defenders. We believe it’s going to be a high-scoring affair, and our second pick is over 2.5 goals.
