Manchester United
After their success in the FA Cup on Saturday against Norwich , Manchester United has switched back their attention to the Premier League as they take on Brighton and Hove Albion in an important match in the race for a UEFA Champions League spot. After eight changes against Norwich on Saturday, it would be sensible to go with the team that beat Sheffield United . Only Bruno, Maguire, and Shaw had stated against the canaries.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has no new injury concerns and is only missing defenders Axel Tuanzebe and Phil Jones . Provided they are all fit, so the first team players like- David de Gea, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Victor Lindelof, Nemanja Matic, Paul Pogba, Mason Greenwood, Marcus Rashford, and Anthony Martial should return. Bruno Fernandes looked tired at Norwich and has played every minute for United since their return but he is the key to United having a successful season, so it is better to start him than rest him.
