Command Analysis

Brighton & Hove Albion

Current form
During the off-season https://www.brightonandhovealbion.com/pages/en/home" target="_blank" rel="noopener">, Brighton was noticeably renewed. First of all, we note the arrival of the youngest coach in the history of the Premier League, 31-year-old Fabian Hürzeler , who successfully worked in the Austrian St. Pölten, as head coach. The ranks of the "seagulls" were replenished by Mats Wiffer, Jankuba Minthe, and Leeds striker Georginho Rutter. Even from the friendly matches, it was noticeable that the team is capable of much - all four friendlies were won with a total score of 14:3.
The emphasis on attack was also noticeable in the first round of the Premier League against Everton (3:0). Of course, the sending off of the opponent had an effect, but even before that the Seagulls had scored two goals. Overall, Brighton had a total advantage on the field, allowing the Toffees to make only one shot on target. We would like to separately note the play of Danny Welbeck , who scored a goal and an assist. Today the footballer will definitely be doubly motivated, as he will be playing against his former team.
It is also impossible to ignore the fact that the newcomers adapted to the team very quickly. Viffer and Minte distinguished themselves with assists.

The injured Enciso, March and Vergbruggen will not be able to help their team today.

Manchester United

Current form
Manchester United did not live up to expectations last season, but still managed to win the FA Cup and did not miss out on European competition. Ten Hag retained his post, the main players remained in the team, Leni Joro, Matthijs de Ligt, Noussair Mazraoui and Joshua Zirkzee joined the squad – a very solid reinforcement. Competition in the squad is expected to be serious, as the head coach has already noted .
The Red Devils entered the new season with a Super Cup match against Manchester City. The Citizens did not have a noticeable advantage in the game, moreover, United opened the scoring first, but conceded a goal in the 89th minute, and their opponent was more accurate in the penalty shootout.
In the first round of the Premier League, Erik ten Hag's men played Fulham on their home field. Despite a fairly significant advantage, they managed to break through the Cottagers' defense only in the 87th minute. Newcomer Joshua Zirkzee scored the winning goal.
It is worth noting that the Mancunians' play does not leave a complete impression yet. There is no complete coherence in defense, the same Fulham in the starting 45 minutes quite easily passed to the goal and created chances. The implementation is clearly limping, which was noticeable from the missed chances in the game with the "summer residents".
Disqualifications and injuries
New signing Leni Joro, Rasmus Hojlund, Luke Shaw, Tyrell Malacia and Victor Lindelof will be out due to injury.
Interesting trends for betting
- In four of Manchester United's last five matches, the bet was on both teams not to score.
- The Red Devils have won just one of their last six away games in the Premier League.
- Manchester United have won three of their last four games on offsides.
Probable line-up : Andre Onana - Harry Maguire, Diogo Dalot, Lisandro Martinez, Noussair Mazraoui - Casemiro, Kobby Mainou - Mason Mount, Amad Diallo, Marcus Rashford - Bruno Fernandes.
