🔻 Betting Odds: 1.8
🔺 Stake: 6/10 units

Manchester United lost their first home game of the 2020/21 season against Crystal Palace 1: 3. The Red Devils thus confirmed their pre-season preparation in a negative way, in which there was a 1-0 defeat against Aston Villa in the only friend. The English record champions are therefore under pressure to act on the English south coast and have to turn the tide against the Seagulls.

The bookmakers trust Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team to win away from home. According to the betting base odds comparison between Brighton and Manchester United, the odds are in the direction of the Red Devils.

However, in the case of Brighton against Manchester United, the prediction must not be excluded that Albion is already much better in rhythm. The Seagulls have already played four competitive games and were able to win the last three games – mind you with a goal difference of 9-0. This is contrasted by the Solskjaer troupe, which has lost its only competitive game since the Europa League final.

Nevertheless, we believe in the English record champions who have won eight of the last eleven clashes with Albion and just celebrated a clear 3-0 victory on the English south coast on June 30, 2020. We, therefore, recommend tip 2 for Brighton against Manchester United.

Brighton – Statistics & Current Form

2010/11 Brighton & Hove Albion played in the third-highest English division. In the meantime, however, the Seagulls have been an integral part of the Premier League for the fourth consecutive year since the 2017/18 season, where they last successfully battled relegation three times in a row.

Since May 2019, Graham Potter has continued the excellent work of his predecessor Chris Hughton. At the end of the preseason, the lead over a direct relegation zone was a proud seven points. Albion came on the 15th.

Sensible and cheap reinforcements with no significant losses

The first three-point in the new season last Sunday was all the more important when the Seagulls were able to celebrate a 3-0 win at Newcastle United. A match in which the club from the south coast of England benefited significantly from the well-rehearsed pre-season.

After all, Brighton did not have to give up a single player on the transfer market that those in charge would have liked to keep. Instead, they struck several times and brought Adam Lallana from Liverpool FC, Joel Veltman from Ajax Amsterdam, and Jan Paul van Hecke from NAC Breda. Three players for whom a total of just three million euros was spent.

Three wins in a row with 9-0 goals

With this, the Seagulls prove that a Premier League club can bake comparatively small rolls and work successfully even without the very large investments. After all, nothing burned at all with the blue-whites in the EFL Cup. Both Portsmouth and Preston North End were appropriately defeated to zero. There are currently three competitive game victories with a goal difference of 9: 0.

It is all the more surprising that at Brighton versus Manchester United, the bookmakers’ odds speak so clearly against Graham Potter’s troops.

The probable lineup of Brighton:
➤ Darlow – Lewis – Fernández – Lascelles – Manquillo – Saint-Maximin – Hayden – Shelvey – Hendrick – Wilson – Carroll

Manchester United – stats & current form

Actually, the 2019/20 season ended in a forgiving and promising way for the Red Devils. With third place in the Premier League, the English record champions landed a whopping 33 points behind champions Liverpool and 15 points behind city rivals City.

The placement was enough to successfully qualify for the UEFA Champions League, which United has missed many times over the past decade. Certainly, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team would have expected a little more in the final tournament of the Europa League, but in the quarter-finals, it was the final destination against the eventual overall winner Sevilla.

Rumble starts after dismembered preparation

However, it is precisely this final tournament that is also responsible for the fact that United’s pre-season preparations were so fragmented that the team is apparently currently suffering from it. The English Football Association granted the Red Devils a guaranteed 30-day break after the final tournament, which is why Manchester only started the season last weekend.

With a 1: 3 home defeat against a Crystal Palace, which was able to prepare for the new season much more undisturbed, the 20-time English champions started the new season very badly.

Doomed to win in Brighton

The Red Devils don’t have much time to get back into rhythm. On the following Sunday, Solskjaer’s predecessor José Mourinho will be with Tottenham at Old Trafford, before Newcastle, Chelsea, and Arsenal wait. The away win on the English south coast is therefore almost a must.

United would also have to be very well established. After all, the English record champions have kept their feet still noticeably on the transfer market and even slept, if the latest reports are to be believed, to place an official offer on time for dream player Jadon Sancho at BVB.

To talk about a crisis in the Red Devils out of all this would be too much of a good thing. Ultimately, the potential for an outsider tip remains too low, which is why we recommend tip 2 for Brighton against Manchester United.

The probable lineup of Manchester United:
➤ De Gea – Shaw – Maguire – Lindelöf – Fosu-Mensah – McTominay – Pogba – Rashford – Fernandes – James – Martial

Brighton vs Manchester United Betting Odds and Predictions

At Brighton against Manchester United, the prediction should on the one hand take into account the fact that United started bumpy into the league after a fragmented preparation for the season, but on the other hand not overestimate it.

Ultimately, a very well-rehearsed and qualitatively much better positioned top team is playing away with a team that only won nine of the 38 league games in 2019/20.

Key facts – Brighton vs Manchester United tips

🔺 United won their last away game at Brighton on June 30, 2020, 3-0
🔺 Brighton have won the last three competitive games with 9-0 goals
🔺 United started the 2020/21 season late after the Europa League final

Although an outsider bet at Brighton against Manchester United would yield tempting odds, we see too little potential for this.
