Manchester United will hope to begin what is a successful spring leg of their 2020/21 season when Brighton come to town on Sunday.
United are unlikely to win the Premier League this season but can still advance in the Europa League and have a top-four spot to contest.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men have just nine Premier League fixtures remaining to secure lucrative European football for next season, and will be aware of the chasing pack that includes Leicester, Chelsea, West Ham and Tottenham.
Brighton, meanwhile, are nervously looking over their shoulder at Newcastle and Fulham, who are battling it out to avoid the drop this term.
The Seagulls have earned back-to-back wins to ease the pressure on Graham Potter but the boss would dearly love a point from this trip north.

Our prediction: Man Utd v Brighton
Manchester United have enough firepower to blow Brighton away even if the likes of Rashford and Martial aren’’t fit enough to feature.
Don’t be surprised if Scott McTominay and Paul Pogba feature in the midfield, while Donny van de Beek and Fred should drop to the bench. Defensively United should be able to handle Brighton so this tie could be settled in the midfield.
If Solskjaer’s men can grab an early goal it will settle the nerves, but even if they have to wait until the second half, the likes of Bruno Fernandes and James should provide a winner at some point.
Our prediction: Man Utd 2-0 Brighton (7/1 at bet365)
