Selection Changes

Manchester United make a couple of alterations in the wake of last week’s victory away to Liverpool. Šeško starts for Mason Mount, now on the substitutes, plus the decisive scorer Maguire misses out completely, Yoro steps in in defense.

An issue arose during training this week. Tyrell Malacia is named among the substitutes this campaign.

The Seagulls opted for one change post-success against over Newcastle. Likely a defensive move, swapping in Maxim De Cuyper for Diego Gómez, on the bench.

Danny Welbeck, a member of the last Manchester United squad that lifted the title in 2012-13, visits his old club with great momentum of four goals in three games, one more than he’d managed over his last 15 matches.
