Match Preview

Very disappointing during the previous year, Manchester United is in better shape this season. However, the results are not yet up to expectations. The Red Devils are currently 6th in the Premier League and are 3 points behind 4th place, the last qualifying seat for the next Champions League. Slowly these days, they have only pocketed one victory in 5 matches, for 3 draws and 1 defeat. After poor performances against Wolverhampton 1-1 and Leeds last weekend 1-1, coach Ruben Amorim was dismissed. This week, Manchester United traveled to the relegated Burnley to come.

Brighton today occupies 10th place in the Premier League with 3 units of spending on their opponent of the day. The Seagulls are not yet clinched but are struggling to find the consistency essential to win a European folding seat. Last weekend, they ended a bad run of 6 games without a win, 3 draws and 3 defeats by beating Burnley 2-0. This week, Brighton traveled to the upcoming Manchester City lair.

Manchester United are without important defenders Maguire and De Ligt as well as replacement midfielder Mainoo, who are injured. Added to this are the absences of the Moroccan Mazraoui, the Ivorian Diallo and the Cameroonian Mbeumo, who are concerned by the African Cup of Nations. The departure of coach Ruben Amorim should redistribute the cards among the Red Devils. Midfielder and captain Bruno Fernandes (5 goals and 7 assists in the PL) should retain all his influence. Striker Matheus Cunha (4 goals in PL) hopes to confirm his recent rise in power.

On the Brighton side, the long-term absentees Webster and March, the Swiss army knife Wieffer and the replacement striker Tzimas are missing, insufficiently recovered from their physical problems. In addition, the important Cameroonian midfielder Baleba is still at the CAN while the winger Minteh (1 goal and 4 assists in PL) is announced as doubtful. French attacking midfielder Rutter (2 goals and 2 assists in PL) scored last weekend as did midfielder Ayari. Trained at Manchester United, striker Welbeck (35 years old, 8 goals in the PL) still provides proud service.

Summary: Manchester United is going head to head with Brighton & Hove Albion starting on 11 Jan 2026 at 16:30 UTC . The match is a part of the FA Cup .
Manchester Utd Feedinco Rating: 6.85
Brighton Feedinco Rating: 6.80

Tip Reasoning

Although their home ground can justifiably be accused of lacking atmosphere, Manchester Utd have not let that detract from recent performances, with the former champions enjoying four wins on the spin in front of their own supporters in the FA Cup. As for Brighton, they clearly do not travel well, suffering nine defeats in 18 top-flight trips and winning only once along the way.
