Manchester United take on the visitors Brighton in the round 5 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, September 16th at Old Trafford (Manchester).
Manchester United are becoming a hotbed of scandals. The Red Devils terminated their contract with the recent captain, Cristiano Ronaldo, in a scandal last season. They also settled the issue with Greenwood in the deadline, although he has currently gone out on loan. But now there are new sources of headaches. Of course, it's Antony, who has significant issues with women, and Sancho, who has been criticized by Erik ten Hag. Is it surprising that, after laboring to secure victories at home (1-0 against Wolverhampton, 3-2 against Nottingham Forest), they lost without much of a chance to stronger opponents (0-2 against Tottenham, 1-3 against Arsenal)?

Brighton manages to both earn and show consistent results. The Seagulls got rid of not only several key players last season but also their manager, Graham Potter. Nevertheless, they managed to break through to European competitions, something many had hoped for. In the summer, Albion certainly signed some interesting performers but also sold players, such as Caisedo for over 100 million! However, they still had a decent start. Yes, they lost 1-3 to West Ham, a potential competitor. However, they also managed to defeat Luton and Wolverhampton, and in September, they took on Newcastle, who are participating in the Champions League this season.
In the last 4 encounters, Manchester United have only managed to win once, and that was in a penalty shootout in a cup match. Meanwhile, Brighton have been stronger three times in a row. The Mancunians are considered favorites in this matchup. However, Brighton currently looks just as strong as their opponents, even at Old Trafford. We expect that The Seagulls will not lose.
Prediction for the match: Brighton not to lose (X2).
