- Out: Raphaël Varane, Lisandro Martínez, Scott McTominay, Donny van de Beek, Phil Jones, Alejandro Garnacho, Tom Heaton
- Doubt: N/A
Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United were given another dose of reality last night when Brighton exacted revenge for their FA Cup defeat against the Red Devils thanks to a late penalty from Alexis Mac Allister that secured all three points for the Seagulls in front of home support on the south coast.
With a chance to climb up into third and ahead of Newcastle United now gone begging, a far more reasonable test awaits the Champions League-motivated side when they travel to the capital to take on relegation-threatened West Ham.
Few changes are expected to be made by the Dutchman on account of the continuing fitness concerns in the senior setup, as well as a relative lack of pressure on account of their points lead over bitter rivals, Liverpool. Raphaël Varane, Lisandro Martínez, Scott McTominay, Donny van de Beek, Phil Jones, Alejandro Garnacho, and Tom Heaton are all still out due to injury, but until last night, that reality failed to truly bite the club after they went on a five-match undefeated run. Expect United to bounce back against “lesser” opposition on Sunday.
