Home Fortress: Brighton has won 4 of their last 5 matches at the Amex Stadium, averaging 2.67 goals per game in the most recent three.
Clinical vs. Volatile: United often overperforms xG due to individual quality, whereas Brighton frequently underperforms (e.g., 1.78 xG in their recent 1-0 loss to Leeds).
Injuries & Absentees
Brighton is heavily impacted by the absence of Kaoru Mitoma (hamstring) and Adam Webster (cruciate), limiting their width and defensive depth. Manchester United is missing key defensive pillar Matthijs de Ligt and top scorer Benjamin Sesko, which significantly weakens their spine but allows for rotation under Michael Carrick.
