Squad Updates
Manchester United make two changes following last week’s victory against Liverpool. Benjamin Šeško comes in replacing Mount, now on the substitutes, plus the decisive scorer Maguire misses out at all, Leny Yoro taking his place at the back.
An issue arose this week in practice. Malacia makes the squad among the substitutes for the first time this season.
Brighton & Hove Albion make one alteration post-success against versus Newcastle. Likely a defensive move, including De Cuyper for Diego GĂłmez, who drops to the bench.
The striker, a member of the last Manchester United squad that lifted the title in 2012-13, comes back to Manchester on a hot streak with four recent goals, one more than he’d managed over his last 15 matches.
Leading Stories
