Forwards
Marcus Rashford (left-winger)
Marcus Rashford looks at his best when he is playing from the left. He scored in his last game for United against Arsenal. Thus, he will be starting on the left in this game as well.
Facundo Pellistri (right-winger)
The most controversial position at Manchester United has to be the right wing. Sancho will not apologise to Ten Hag for his public post and thus, he is out of the squad. Also, Antony is fighting the allegations made against him and is on leave. So, it would be a fight between Alejandro Garnacho and Facundo Pellistri. However, most fans are choosing Pellistri over Garnacho for this game as the Argentine is expected to make a substitute appearance.
Rasmus Hojlund (striker)
Rasmus Hojlund is finally expected to start at Old Trafford. He looked sharp for the time he was on the pitch against Arsenal. Thus, fans will be hoping for a goal from the newly recruited Danish striker.
Full Man Utd predicted line-up against Brighton: Andre Onana; Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Victor Lindelof, Lisandro Martinez, Sergio Reguilon; Casemiro, Sofyan Amrabat, Bruno Fernandes (c); Marcus Rashford, Facundo Pellistri, Rasmus Hojlund.
