Manchester United vs Brighton & Hove Albion
Old Trafford
Sunday 19 January, 15:00
English Premier League
Recent Form
Man Utd
After losing four games in a row, the ship has somewhat steadied for Manchester United as they are now three games unbeaten in all competitions.
Ruben Amorim’s side found themselves a goal down at home to bottom of the table Southampton in their recent fixture, but a Amad Diallo hat-trick late on spared their blushes and earned all three points.
Brighton
While Brighton are also on a solid run of form as they have not lost in their last six games in all competitions, albeit four of those games have been draws and one victory was against Championship outfit Norwich in the FA Cup.
Georginio Ritter has been the main in form for the Seagulls in recent times with his three goals in last two games, coming off the bench to score in the recent fixture against Ipswich Town.
Our Tips
With Diallo’s recent hat trick, we believe that he will carry on this form against Brighton on Sunday.
Amad Diallo Anytime Goalscorer, 3.25

Carlos Baleba has picked up four yellows and one red card this term, and against the likes of Bruno Fernandes and Manuel Ugarte in midfield, we predict him to go in the book.
