Manchester United will hope to return to the Premier League TV schedule against Brighton this weekend after their midweek match was called off due to COVID-19.
It remains unclear whether this clash at Old Trafford will go ahead amid increasing calls to postpone matches due to fresh outbreaks of the virus.
Should the game go ahead, United are well-positioned to make a charge up into the top four following a strong run of form.
The Red Devils have enjoyed three consecutive victories in the Premier League since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s departure and Ralf Rangnick will be keen to keep the heat up going in the winter period.
Brighton are winless in 12 across all competitions, a run that stretched back to mid-September, despite a terrific start under Graham Potter to begin the season.

Our prediction: Man Utd v Brighton
Much depends on United’s squad status. If numerous stars remain ruled out due to COVID, this could be an unpredictable affair.
However, regardless of who Rangnick can select from, United have quality and depth to cope, even if they lower their expectations for this weekend.
Brighton haven’t found a win in three months and Old Trafford is unlikely to be the location they end that dire streak.
Our prediction: Man Utd 2-1 Brighton (8/1 at bet365)
