Manchester United host Brighton at Old Trafford in the Premier League on Saturday October 25, live on Sky Sports.

Man Utd enter this fixture after their first back-to-back league wins under Ruben Amorim and are now ninth in the Premier League table.

After beating Sunderland and Liverpool, another victory against Brighton would move Amorim's side into the top four for the first time since the opening day of the 2024/25 season.

Brighton are one place and one point behind United in 10th place in the table.

Fabian Hurzeler's side are unbeaten in their last five games in all competitions and beat Newcastle 2-1 last time out. Brighton could also move into the top four with a win at Old Trafford, depending on the margin of victory.

Last season, Brighton won both fixtures between the two sides, winning 3-1 at Old Trafford in January after triumphing 2-1 at home in August 2024.

When is Man Utd vs Brighton?

Man Utd vs Brighton odds and score prediction

Sky Sports' Lewis Jones...

Momentum is everything in betting and sport. Spot the players in form before the markets fully wake up and you're laughing.

Last week, we were on the right lines with Amad Diallo to play a part in a Manchester United goal against Liverpool, and he delivered. He's linking up beautifully down the right with Bryan Mbeumo, forming a partnership that's quietly starting to purr.

Tactically, this match-up looks tailor-made for those two again. Brighton's full-backs push on aggressively, leaving acres of grass behind them which is perfect territory for pace and precision on the counter.

It's easy to picture a scenario of Mbeumo spinning infield, Amad overlapping and the net rippling for a second week in a row. It's 3/1 with Sky Bet for both Amad and Mbeumo to score or assist.

SCORE PREDICTION: 2-1

Man Utd vs Brighton team news

Manchester United have minor fitness concerns over Harry Maguire, scorer of the winner against Liverpool last Sunday, and Mason Mount.

"The squad is fine," Ruben Amorim said. "We have some doubts, we had some issues in the week with Harry Maguire and Mason Mount. Nothing serious and we will see tomorrow."

Defender Lisandro Martinez remains unavailable as he continues his recovery from a serious knee injury.

Brighton head coach Fabian Hurzeler has confirmed Diego Gomez is available to start at Old Trafford despite going off during the first half of the win over Newcastle.

But Brighton are still monitoring the fitness of Brajan Gruda (knee), Kaoru Mitoma (ankle) and Joel Veltman (calf). Hurzeler said: "They're all close to the team, so maybe one or two of them might be available. They don't have big issues, they're small issues. They are nothing serious. I can't say that they all will be available, I can't say that they won't be available. We have to see how Friday goes and then we have to make a decision."
