Our prediction for this match: Brighton 2 - 1 Manchester United
Brighton vs Manchester United Preview
Brighton will look to book their spot in the Europa League hopes when they welcome Manchester United to the Amex Stadium on the final day of the Premier League season. As Brighton want this win more than Man Utd, we predict a 2-1 home win. The Seagulls suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat to Leeds United last time out, but their recent form at home has been impressive, with four wins from their last five matches at the Amex. Fabian Hurzeler’s men have averaged 2.0 goals per game at home during that run, while also conceding just 0.6 goals on average.
Manchester United, meanwhile, already secured their Champions League place and may not be fully motivated for the trip to the south coast. The Red Devils head into the clash on the back of strong overall form, collecting 20 points from their last ten matches, but their away displays have been less convincing, with only one win percentage of 25% on the road. Injuries to Benjamin Sesko and Matthijs de Ligt are also a concern for Michael Carrick. Historically, this fixture tends to deliver entertainment, with 67% of the last 21 meetings producing over 2.5 goals.
Brighton’s excellent home form and United’s inconsistent away performances make the hosts a safer option. Therefore, Home Win is our main betting tip, alongside Brighton Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals total (14 of the last 21 H2H meetings went over 2.5 goals).
This Premier League match will be played on Sunday, 24 May 2026 at 16:00.
