Squad Updates
Manchester United make two changes after their 2-1 win against Liverpool. Šeško starts for Mason Mount, now on the substitutes, while last week’s win-securing hero Harry Maguire doesn’t feature completely, Leny Yoro taking his place in defence.
He sustained a knock in midweek sessions. Malacia makes the squad on the bench this campaign.
Brighton have made a single switch after their 2-1 home win against the Magpies. Seemingly a tactical shift, bringing in Maxim De Cuyper for Diego Gómez, who drops to the bench.
Welbeck, a member of the last Manchester United squad to win the Premier League during the 2012-13 season, comes back to Manchester in fine form of four goals in three games, exceeding his tally over his last 15 matches.
