Old Trafford plays host to a Premier League midtable clash on Saturday as Manchester United take on Brighton.

Two sides with high expectations are looking to improve upon their mediocre start to the campaign.

The Red Devils are coming off their biggest result of the season, a 2-1 win at Anfield over Liverpool. Ruben Amorim's side desperately need to carry over that momentum and start stringing together results if they hope to return to European competition next season.

It won't be easy as United have been dealt a couple of fresh injury blows. Both Harry Maguire and Mason Mount could miss this weekend's match.

Brighton's usually a team punching above their weight in the Premier League. However, this season they've seemingly met their match. Only 12 points gained through eight matches has them squarely in midtable in 10th spot, just one place behind their hosts.
