Brighton walk into this final day clash with Manchester United still chasing a Conference League berth. They sit seventh on 53 points and need a strong result to lock that down.
United already have third place wrapped up with 68 points. Their form has been sharp lately, four wins and a draw from the last five games including that 3-2 victory over Nottingham Forest. Brighton’s run looks patchier by comparison, two wins, two defeats and a draw in the same stretch.
The absence of Kaoru Mitoma and Adam Webster leaves Brighton light in attack and defence. Mats Wieffer remains a doubt with his ankle issue. United will also miss Matthijs de Ligt while Benjamin Sesko’s lower leg problem keeps him doubtful. Those gaps could open space for the likes of Bruno Fernandes to dictate play once more.
Danny Welbeck leads Brighton’s scoring with 13 goals this campaign. On the other side Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo have both reached double figures for United, giving them multiple threats in the final third. The match carries little drama for the visitors beyond pride, yet their recent results suggest they will not simply hand points away.
Brighton have shown they can score in bursts, those 3-0 wins over Wolves and Chelsea stand out. United have also been involved in several high-scoring affairs lately. Expect the game to open up as the afternoon progresses.
