Brighton vs Man United score prediction

Unfortunately, Man United have a poor record and I cannot see them overturning it against Brighton. Man United have a fair share of injury concerns, whereas Brighton are flying. However, a scoreline of Brighton 0-0 Man United would be good for Erik ten Hag in the long-run.
