Brighton vs Manchester United prediction

Round 2 of the English Premier League will see Brighton host Manchester United at the Amex Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The Seagulls ascended to the summit of the league after a resounding victory over Everton at the Goodison Park, where they scored 3 goals the highest in the match-day one. Having secured a sublime start to the new campaign, Brighton will look to continue brilliant form but now they face a more adept and dangerous opponent.

United on the other hand were able to snatch victory from what looked like an outright draw at home against Fulham thanks to Joshua Zirkzee’s impact right after coming off the bench. This victory came in really handy for the Red Devils at least to help boost their confidence after a painful Community Shield outing.

One common trademark shared by these two is a direct style of play which is mostly accompanied by a high volume of attacks giving room for so much activity in front goal, all these we’ve seen in past meetings between both clubs. So as they meet again fans should be rest assured they are in for a treat. Hence, Our Brighton vs Manchester United prediction is Over 9.5 corners and we recommend the overs in the corner market.
