Match Prediction- PSG vs Rennes Betting Tips and Match Prediction
Man United’s frustrations continued on Saturday, as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Southampton, taking the lead in the first half of the match through Jadon Sancho, before Che Adams found the back of the net for the Saints in the early stages of the second period. It was the second league match in a row where the Red Devils had taken the lead before conceding early in the second half, and it was another 1-1 draw for Ralf Rangnick’s side, who sit fifth in the table, one point behind fourth-placed West Ham, who drew with Leicester City on Sunday.
Arsenal is only a point behind Man United with two games in hand, though, so the 20-time English champions desperately need to start putting victories on the board if they are to secure a top-four finish, even with West Ham and Tottenham Hotspur both dropping points over the weekend. The Red Devils have only lost one league match since Rangnick’s appointment as interim manager, but they have won just two of their last six in England’s top flight, while Cristiano Ronaldo has not registered for the club since the 3-1 victory over Burnley at the end of December.

Brighton, as mentioned, were two-goal winners at Watford on Saturday afternoon courtesy of efforts from Neal Maupay and Adam Webster, with the result moving the Seagulls into the ninth spot in the table. Graham Potter’s side has won seven, drawn 12, and lost four of their 23 league games this term, with only the top three – Manchester City, Liverpool, and Chelsea – losing fewer matches in England’s top-flight during the 2021-22 campaign, which is an indication of how impressive they have been.
Brighton is actually only three points behind eighth-placed Tottenham and sits six ahead of 11th-placed Aston Villa, so they are certainly in a strong position to secure a top-half finish, which would be a remarkable achievement for a team that has finished 15th, 17th, 15th, and 16th since being promoted to the Premier League by finishing second in the 2016-17 Championship. The Seagulls have lost just once on their travels in the Premier League this term, which is the joint-best record with Man City, while they are unbeaten in their last seven in England’s top flight, last losing at home to Wolverhampton Wanderers in the middle of December.

It is difficult to back Man United to keep a clean sheet at the moment, and we are expecting Brighton to score on Tuesday night. That said, the Red Devils are in desperate need of a victory, and we believe that the home side will somehow navigate their way to a hugely important three points against Potter’s team, moving into the fourth spot in the table in the process.
Manchester United’s players have come under a lot of criticism for not being aggressive enough and not showing enough hunger. Broad conjecture aside, they get outplayed for large spells during every game and most teams are able to take advantage of that. Graham Potter’s men are well drilled and play an exciting brand of football which will cause worry lines to run all over Harry Maguire’s face. This game has a Brighton signature 1-1 stamped all over it.
Manchester United 2-1 Brighton, as predicted by us.
