Manchester United play host to Brighton at their Old Trafford in the opening match of the season. The Red Devils were anything but impressive in pre-season, and, no doubt, new boss Erik ten Hag faces an uphill task in the 2022/2023 Premier League campaign. As always, a man to watch in the home team will be Portugal superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, while Christian Eriksen is likely to make his EPL debut with Man Utd against Brighton.
There are no injury worries in the home team ahead of Sunday’s clash. The Seagulls, on the other hand, are eager to claim a major scalp on Matchday 1, but they will have to do it without key midfielder Yves Bissouma, who signed a deal with Spurs in the summer. Anyhow, the share of spoils is on the cards as Man Utd do not seem to be at their sharpest ahead of the season opener. Jakub Moder misses out with injury for the visiting side.
Manchester United vs Brighton: Kick-Off Time, Date
- Man Utd's home clash with Brighton will get underway from 2pm UK time on Sunday, August 7.
- The game will take place at Old Trafford.
- The last time the two sides played, Brighton thrashed United 4-0 at the Amex Stadium.
Match Preview - Manchester United vs Brighton
The Dutchman signed a three-year contract to become United's new permanent manager in April, but Ralf Rangnick remained in charge until the end of last season.
The Ten Hag era is now officially underway and his first match as United boss was confirmed on Thursday when the Premier League schedule was published.
Some of United's players may feel they have a score to settle with Brighton. United's penultimate game of last season was a 4-0 defeat at Brighton's Amex Stadium.
After beginning the 2022/23 campaign at home to Brighton, United also faces Brentford, Liverpool, Southampton, and Leicester in August.
United's two games against Liverpool have been penciled in for August 20 and March 4, while they are set to play Manchester City in October and January.
The Red Devils will play 16 matches before the season breaks for the first ever winter FIFA World Cup.
United's final game before the World Cup is against Fulham and they return to action on Boxing Day against Nottingham Forest.
The final day of the Premier League season will be Sunday, May 28 when United are due to face Fulham.

The soap opera over whether Cristiano Ronaldo will stay or go rumbles on after he left Old Trafford before full-time following a first half run out against Rayo Vallecano in a 1-1 draw last weekend.
The Portuguese forward left United's 1-1 draw with Rayo Vallecano early after being hauled off at half-time and has reportedly made it clear he wants to leave.
Elsewhere, new boy Tyrell Malacia could get a start at left-back after impressing United fans all throughout pre-season.
And you can expect forwards Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford to start in tandem with one another after their fruitful summers in the side.
Both sides have seen comings and goings throughout the summer and here's a summary of ins and outs for you.
Manchester United:
Ins: Tyrell Malacia (Feyenoord, £13m), Christian Eriksen (Brentford, free), Lisandro Martinez (Ajax, £57m)
Outs: Jesse Lingard (Nottingham Forest, free), Paul Pogba (Juventus, free), Juan Mata (free), Nemanja Matic (Roma, free), Edinson Cavani (free), Andreas Pereira (Fulham, £10m), Dean Henderson (Nottingham Forest, loan), Lee Grant (retired), D’Mani Mellor (Wycombe, free), Reece Devine (Swindon, free), Paul McShane (released), Connor Stanley (released), Paul Woolston (released), Dylan Levitt (Dundee United, undisclosed), Alvaro Fernandez (Preston, loan).

Manchester United vs Brighton Prediction and Latest Odds
Man United are odds on favorites at 8/15 with Brighton 5/1 and the draw priced at 3/1.
- Man Utd - 8/15
- Draw - 3/1
- Brighton - 5/1
We can expect to see an unchanged Man Utd side line up at the Amex and one fresh in confidence from Monday night's victory.
Brighton will look to go toe-to-toe with the Red Devils, as is their nature under Potter, but keeping Cristiano Ronaldo quiet may be too tough a task – even with Tariq Lamptey and Adam Webster likely returning to the XI.
The Seagulls will feel they're in a better place now than when they last met but it would not be a surprise to see the game end with the same result.
Our prediction: Brighton 0-2 Man Utd ( at )
