Brighton vs Manchester United Prediction: Expect a high-productive match

Prediction for the FA Cup match between Brighton and Manchester United, which will take place on April 23. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Brighton is having a lively season, with a strong possibility of qualifying for the European competitions. Under Graham Potter, the Seagulls have been performing well, and with Roberto De Dzerby, they have become even brighter and more entertaining. At the same time, the intensity of the scoring has certainly not diminished. In their last nine games in all competitions, the Blues and Whites have suffered only one defeat at the hands of Tottenham, 1:2. In that meeting, and they had a good chance of winning, but a controversial decision did not allow them to succeed. Brighton sits seventh in the Premier League table, reaching the semi-finals in the FA Cup.

Manchester United has been playing with mixed success this season. The Red Devils experienced a rough first half of the league season, but they were just getting to know their new head coach, so it was easy to see why they didn't show much improvement. After a break following the 2022 World Cup, they started to play much better, and they almost stopped losing, and they were outstanding in the hometown area. All this allowed the Red-Blacks to climb to third place in the Premier League table. In the FA Cup, they reached the semi-finals and won each of the four previous rounds by the same 3:1.

Brighton is having a very strong season, but they are still inferior to the side in most statistical components. You only need to refer to the Premier League table, with the Seagulls in seventh place and the Devils in third. As a result, we are betting on Man United qualifying for the next round of the FA Cup.

Brighton and Man United are not shy about playing fun and productive games in the current FA Cup. In the four previous meetings, there were 15 goals scored in total (3.75 on the average per game), and the Red Devils scored 16 goals (4.00 on the average per game) over the same distance. And now, we can expect a goal-rich rivalry, although the upcoming battle will be of a cup nature, where the cost of error is high. With this in mind, a total over 3.5 goals seems a good bet, and we'd also put our money on the correct score - 1:3.
