Brighton & Hove Albion Manchester United betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match will be a multi-goal game. We expect a game dominated by the away team, but Brighton are playing at home and can take advantage of some defensive slackness from their opponents. It is worth noting that 59% of Manchester United's away games have ended with more than two goals at the end of the 90'. That said, and taking these factors into account, betting on the "Over 2.5 goals" market is a good option.
