Manchester United are disappointing but I can neither go for Brighton. About under 2.5 goals bet, I do not think it is good to use just a single match to make such conclusion. At least, you should look for 3 to 5 matches between both clubs but the season has just started. I am not implying that you may not be right but a single match is not enough to make such conclusion. But if I still remember what happened in last season, it was hard to score more goals while playing with Manchester United.
Do you mean they was from match day 1? I don't think so and wouldn't say that. Manchester United created chances, pressed well but they couldn't keep ball possession for too long as they allow Fulham counter attack them dangerously. Brighton in between did a great job, Manchester United need a lot of focus, pacy but most importantly, brilliant and pacy players to out play Brighton tommorow. Should be tougher than I'm already thinking.
I would want and love Manchester United to take three points though, they have to show up and take chances likewise fight and defend together.
My prediction would be for a 1-2 win in favour of the red devils Manchester United. After Brighton comes Liverpool if I'm not mistaking.
Read one weird comment on the return of IIkay Gundogan. He is not back for coaching role. He's back because due to personal reasons and also since it helps the financial woes of Football Club Barcelona.
If you really check out the performance of Manchester United against Fulham it wasn't easy with them. At the beginning of the game I think Manchester United were very relaxed, and the game was just like their regular performance in last season. Manchester United managed to score their first goal toward the end of the game, I think Fulham gave them a tough game . I won't just have hope on them because they won their first game against Fulham and it will still happen again when they play against Brighton. I feel Manchester United are still struggling, even if they won their first game. Their was no much different in performance of their first first game and that of last season. But as the season continues I'll see if their is a transformation in Manchester United to predict upcoming games .
