Manchester United fans are no doubt still in a buoyant mood after witnessing \u2018Amadness\u2019 on Thursday evening.<\/span><\/p>\n

Staring down the barrel of defeat, young star Amad Diallo scored a sensational late hat-trick to secure a dramatic 3-1 comeback victory against Southampton at Old Trafford.<\/span><\/p>\n

But a much better performance will be required on Sunday as Brighton make the trip to the Theatre of Dreams, fresh from a convincing 2-0 win at Ipswich.<\/span><\/p>\n

Manchester United vs Brighton<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Sunday, January 19, 2pm<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Old Trafford, Manchester<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Live on Sky Sports<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Manchester United vs Brighton Preview<\/b><\/h2>\n

For around 80 minutes, United were firmly second best to a struggling Southampton, sparking scenes of concern following the FA Cup Third Round victory at Arsenal.<\/span><\/p>\n

But Diallo\u2019s heroics have helped enhance the growing positivity around new manager Ruben Amorim.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Portuguese masterminded a 2-2 draw at Anfield vs Liverpool in the league fixture before that and there is now a sense the Red Devils are on the path to improvement.<\/span><\/p>\n

So a home fixture against a tricky Brighton outfit under the tutelage of young, exciting manager Fabian Hurzeler is the perfect litmus test to really gauge where United are at.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Seagulls started the season like a train but were on an eight-match winless run in the top flight before claiming victory at Portman Road.<\/span><\/p>\n

On their day, Brighton can mix it with the best in the Premier League, evidenced by a 2-1 win over Manchester City and a 3-2 victory against Tottenham after falling 2-0 behind.<\/span><\/p>\n

Joao Pedro, Kaoru Mitoma and Georginio Rutter are talented forwards capable of inflicting harm on any team and United\u2019s back-line will be well aware of that fact.<\/span><\/p>\n

But defensively, Brighton are renowned for offering up chances to the opposition, which should have Diallo and Bruno Fernandes licking their lips.<\/span><\/p>\n

And it could be the perfect match for Rasmus Hojlund to rediscover some form, although Joshua Zirkzee\u2019s impressive cameo against Southampton should see him start from the off.<\/span><\/p>\n

Brighton won this fixture 3-1 last season and also claimed a 2-1 victory at the Amex earlier in the campaign thanks to a stoppage-time goal from Pedro.<\/span><\/p>\n

So revenge will be on the Red Devils\u2019 minds on Sunday afternoon!<\/span><\/p>\n

Manchester United vs Brighton Odds<\/b><\/h2>\n

*All odds are subject to change<\/b><\/p>\n

Thanks to back-to-back victories, United enter this fixture as favourites at odds of 2.04. Brighton are priced at 3.36 to repeat last season\u2019s outcome, while the draw is 3.62.<\/span><\/p>\n

Manchester United vs Brighton Betting Tips<\/b><\/h2>\n

Amad Diallo to score anytime @ 3.93<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Backing an attacker in form to score is always a sensible move, especially when they have such eye-catching odds! Diallo has scored six goals in the Premier League this season and netted in United\u2019s 2-1 loss at the Amex back in August.<\/span><\/p>\n

Brighton to be leading at half-time, Manchester United to win @ 17.00<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

United have conceded first in each of their last four league matches at Old Trafford. But they are also comeback kings on home soil, hence why we are backing this selection.<\/span><\/p>\n

Joao Pedro to score first @ 7.40<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

And if Brighton are to strike first, Pedro is likely to be the man responsible. The Brazilian has scored five times in the Premier League this season and is always a threat in the final third.<\/span><\/p>\n
