Brighton vs Man Utd: Kick-off time, TV and live stream details

Manchester United travel south to take on Brighton and Hove Albion on Thursday night in the Premier League, with Erik ten Hag hoping to put some distance between his side and the chasing pack.

United have won four of their past five matches in the Premier League, with Ten Hag's side opening up a six point gap over Liverpool, who are currently fifth. Brighton, meanwhile have suffered defeats in recent weeks, but bounced back with a resounding 6-0 win against Wolves at the weekend.

The Seagulls will be keen to bounce back from their recent FA Cup semi-final defeat to United, and boast a good recent league record against the Red Devils. Under former boss Graham Potter, Brighton won 2-1 at Old Trafford on the opening weekend of the season following a Pascal Gross brace.

They also won the last time they hosted United in East Sussex, with a memorable 4-0 win in May 2022 and United will be keen to avoid a repeat of that loss as they make the 200 mile trip south to the Amex Stadium.

When is Brighton vs Man United?

Brighton take on Manchester United on Thursday, 4 May, with the match at the Amex Stadium in Brighton kicking off at 8pm (BST).
