Brighton vs Manchester United: Commentary, updates, goals and stats

Manchester United head to Brighton with one eye on next season under Michael Carrick.

Carrick’s full-time appointment was confirmed on Friday morning and allows the club to accelerate their recruitment plans for this summer.

Brighton have more immediate concerns as they look to pick up a win that would secure them a place in next season’s European competition. Victory will at least confirm a place in the Europa League, although various permutations involving Bournemouth, Liverpool and Aston Villa could see them end up in the Champions League.

The Seagulls start the afternoon in seventh place with United third.
