Brighton and Hove Albion vs Manchester United 04.05.2023 Prediction: English Premier League

Match Overview

Manchester United and Brighton and Hove Albion, who have had terrific battles throughout this season, go against each other in another jewelled clash in the Premier League at the Amex Stadium in Brighton. It is a critical game for the Red Devils, as it will allow them to virtually cement a spot for themselves in the top four of the league table and qualify for the Champions League next season.

Key Highlights

Brighton, who defeated Manchester United at Old Trafford in the reverse fixture earlier in the season, will feel that their recent loss to the same opponents in the semifinal of the FA Cup was unfair owing to the game going to penalties. They will want to avenge that defeat on Thursday and set the record straight. They have proven this season that they are a dangerous side to play at home.  

Injury Report

Both these teams have long lists of injured players in their ranks. Brighton will have to make do without the services of Tariq Lamptey, Joel Veltman, Jeremy Sarmiento, Evan Ferguson and Adam Lallana among others while Manchester United will be missing their defensive stalwarts Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez along with Scott McTominay and Alejandro Garnacho.

Prediction

We expect BTTS (both teams to score in this game). Brighton will be a tough nut for Manchester United and Erik ten Hag to crack, and they will not have it easy at all. The Red Devils will have to bring their A-game to the Amex Stadium. Brighton, on the other hand, will want to get a positive result to go higher up in the table and qualify for European competitions next season.
