Match Preview
Two sides that started the new Premier League season with victories will collide on the second matchday in the competition this weekend. Brighton were excellent on the opening weekend, as they scored three times away from home to secure a famous victory at Everton and move to the top of the Premier League standings. But, they could find things more challenging against Man United this weekend.
Kaoru Mitoma opened the scoring at Goodison Park last weekend, before Danny Welbeck and Simon Adingdra added efforts in the second period. James Milner made history in that fixture at Goodison Park after appearing in the 23rd season of Premier League action. No player has appeared in more consecutive seasons than the midfielder.

Man United will be hopeful of a positive third season under Erik ten Hag this term, and they come into this season round of fixtures after making a positive start to the new season under the Dutchman last weekend. The Red Devils kicked off the new campaign at Old Trafford on Friday, with Joshua Zirkzee netting on his United debut to give the club maximum points.
The victory means that United have now recorded more victories on the opening day of the season than any other Premier League side. Zirkzee also became the 15th Dutch player to score on his debut in the competition, and he was also the fourth Red Devil to net on his debut in the English top-flight for the club.
