Manchester United, Recent FormThe Manchester United players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their away fixture against Arsenal recently, that ended in a 3-1 defeat. Their share of possession in that meeting was 45%, while racking up 10 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target, in contrast to Arsenal, who had 17 shots on goal with 5 on target.
Manager Erik ten Hag will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 11 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 9 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They've had a good run of home form recently, with 8 straight wins in a row and are on an unbeaten run of 20 games.
On an individual basis, Bruno Fernandes will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Manchester United's last 6 league games.
Brighton & Hove Albion, Recent FormBrighton & Hove Albion will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 3-1 winners in their home fixture against Newcastle United. They achieved 56% possession in that match and had 15 strikes at goal, with 6 hitting the target, up against Newcastle United's tally of 9 efforts at goal, 2 of which were on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 14 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 9 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 20 games in a row, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games away from home.
It's been mixed fortunes for Brighton away from home recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games on the road.
