The Erik Ten Hag era at Manchester United starts off in earnest with this home fixture against Brighton in their opening game of the new Premier League season. Manchester United won 10 of their last 13 opening fixtures in the Premier League, but will be wary of a Brighton team that beat them 4-0 in the second-last game of the season.

MANCHESTER UNITED
Manchester United are in the process of rebuilding under their new Dutch coach, but they will feel they have enough to take the 3 points in this fixture. The pre-season tour started well with 2 wins before the team drew 2 and lost 1 of their last 3 games before this season opener.
Cristiano Ronaldo is back in training with the team even though his desire to leave for Champions League football continues to overshadow the team’s preparations. With Martial pulling a hamstring in training, the Red Devils’ shortage of proven attackers may be exposed early in the season. Nevertheless, the players available like Rashford, Sancho, and Bruno Fernandes should get the job done.
BRIGHTON & HOVE ALBION
Brighton had a very successful run last season by their standards. For the first time they finished in the top half of the Premier League at 9th position. They also beat Manchester United 4-0 in the second leg towards the end of the season. Another win in this match would give them a great start to the new season.
Brighton won all their opening league games for the last 3 seasons. Majority of their points from last season (57%) came from away games compared to home games. Nevertheless, they have lost key players like Yves Bissouma and coach Graham Porter knows it will be an uphill task to repeat last season’s great run.
