Confirmed Manchester United line-up vs Brighton: First start for Hojlund

Manchester United welcome Brighton & Hove Albion to Old Trafford in the Premier League.

Brighton have defeated United 7-1 on aggregate across the last four meetings between the two sides, and Erik ten Hag could do with a positive result today.

Roberto de Zerbi’s side finished sixth and qualified for the Europa League, which means they gave a busy season ahead of them after a strong start – winning three of their first four games this season.

Andre Onana is in goal as per usual and he will play behind a back four consisting of Diogo Dalot, Victor Lindelof, Lisandro Martinez, Sergio Reguilon.

In midfield, Casemiro has plenty of support alongside Scott McTominay, Christian Eriksen and Bruno Fernandes.

The Portuguese Magnificio is likely to start on the right side of attack, helping unlock the defence for Marcus Rashford and Rasmus Hojlund.

Manchester United XI vs Brighton: Onana, Dalot, Lindelof, Martinez, Reguilon, Casemiro, McTominay, Eriksen, Fernandes, Hojlund, Rashford.

Subs: Bayindir, Evans, Maguire, Wan-Bissaka, Gore, Hannibal, Pellistri, Hannibal, Martial.
