Selection Changes
Manchester United make two adjustments after last week’s victory against Liverpool. Benjamin Šeško comes in instead of Mount, relegated to the bench, while last week’s win-securing hero Harry Maguire doesn’t feature at all, Yoro steps in at the back.
He sustained a knock this week in practice. Tyrell Malacia is named in a Premier League squad this campaign.
Brighton & Hove Albion make one change post-success against over Newcastle. It’s ostensibly a defensive one, swapping in Maxim De Cuyper replacing Gómez, on the bench.
Danny Welbeck, formerly of United to win the Premier League back in 2013, visits his old club with great momentum with four recent goals, one more than he’d managed from 15 prior games.
Pre-Match Patter
Amorim is unfazed about the views of Arne Slot … but Danny Welbeck is highly concerned regarding the plans from the German coach.
Various reports suggest that this match may influence their respective fortunes as the Premier League campaign progresses.
Star performers are Bruno Fernandes from the hosts and the Brighton forward from the away side, each performing well in recent weeks.
