It is Erik ten Hag’s first competitive match in charge of the Red Devils – and the Dutchman appears to have a huge challenge on his hands.
Brighton starting XI:
Graham Potter has a near enough full-strength Brighton squad to choose from for today’s trip to Old Trafford.
Ex-Liverpool midfielder Adam Lallana will no doubt get a warm reception, having scored in his last appearance for United’s fierce rivals at the ground.
Pascal Gross will be hoping to continue his rich vein of goalscoring form against the Red Devils.
- Sanchez, 34. Veltman, 5. Dunk, 4. Webster, 7. March, 10. Mac Allister, 25. Caicedo, 11. Trossard, 13. Gross, 14. Lallana, 18. Welbeck
Man Utd starting XI:
The big news coming out of Manchester is that Cristiano Ronaldo is on the bench for ten Hag’s first game in charge.
Lisandro Martinez will make his debut alongside Harry Maguire.
Christian Eriksen makes his first appearance for the club today in the Premier League also.
- De Gea, 20. Dalot, 5. Maguire, 6. Martinez, 23. Shaw, 39. McTominay, 17. Fred, 25. Sancho, 14. Eriksen, 8. Fernandes, 10. Rashford.
