Fixture: Manchester United vs Brighton & Hove Albion
Competition: Premier League
Kick-off: 15:00 (UK time)

Manchester United have named their starting side and substitutes to play host to Chris Hughton's Brighton outfit at Old Trafford this afternoon.

Interim boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has had a bright start to life at Manchester United, with the Red Devils closing the gap on the top four to just six points.




Victory over Brighton would move Solskjaer's men to fifth and three points off the top four, even if albeit temporarily.

Solskjaer picks David de Gea in goal, while at the back he selects Victor Lindelof and Phil Jones as the central pairing. Nemanja Matic, Ander Herrera and Paul Pogba play, while Jesse Lingard and Marcus Rashford support Anthony Martial.

The Manchester United boss can make changes if he needs to try to shake things up, with options available on the bench including Alexis Sanchez and Romelu Lukaku.
