Manchester United Preview – Can Red Devils start new era with win?
Ten Hag has taken over the reigns at Old Trafford and will be keen for his side to make a winning start to this new Premier League season against Brighton following a dismal finish to last season as United suffered back to back away defeats at Brighton and Crystal Palace.
However, the arrival of the mercurial Eriksen in midfield will be a major boost for Manchester United and he’s expected to be the creative spark in the middle of the park, so watch out for Eriksen and Ronaldo linking up well and scoring in tandem.
Brighton Preview – Can Seagulls repeat heroics?
Brighton finished in 9th place under manager, Graham Potter, in last season’s Premier League campaign which was thanks to stubborn form on the road which saw The Seagulls lose just four games on their travels all season.
The visitors were unbeaten in their last five games of last term, picking up wins against Wolves, Manchester United and West Ham, while losing just once in their last five away games but Old Trafford is still a daunting place to visit, especially in the opening game of the season.
