Brighton vs Man United Prediction
Brighton kicked off their new season in style under new head coach Fabian Hurzeler, putting three past Everton at Goodison Park.
Manchester United also secured victory in their opener, with substitute Joshua Zirkzee's late finish enough for all three points at home to Fulham.
United have won just one of their last four visits to Brighton, that victory coming in the Premier League last season.
Expect an entertaining battle in the early kick-off, with the points perhaps being shared.

Brighton vs Man United Bet Builder Tips
Bet Builder: Over 2.5 Tackles For Kobbie Mainoo & Over 2.5 Tackles For Mason Mount - 11/1 with SkyBet at the time of publishing.
Manchester United appear to have amended some of the issues that plagued them last season in the last two games.
The defensive units have followed up the high press and this has led to high tackle numbers in their games against Manchester City and Fulham. Erik Ten Hag’s side made 24 tackles in the Community Shield and 21 in their opening league game.
The players we have singled out for tackles here are Kobbie Mainoo and Mason Mount. Kobbie has become a constant in the United midfield and made three tackles next to Casemiro last weekend.
Mount has had limited opportunities for the Red Devils but was crucial in their press against Fulham. He applied intense pressure, racking up three tackles in the 61 minutes he played.
