Bringhton vs Manchester United Today Match
Three days after making it through to the FA Cup semi-final, Manchester United are back in Premier League action on Tuesday as they take on Brighton at the Amex Stadium.
The match is United’s third league match of the restart with the team having picked up four points from their opening two matches against Tottenham and Sheffield United.
Brighton have the same record since the restart as they look to move away from the relegation zone.
United though have loftier aspirations higher up the table, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men aiming to close the gap on the Champions League places and pile more pressure onto Chelsea and Leicester City ahead of their games on Wednesday. Three points would take United above Wolves and to within two points of Chelsea.
