To get the lowdown on Albion’s opponents, Manchester United, I spoke to Dominic Booth who covers the Red Devils for the Manchester Evening News:

Do you think they will finish in the top four?

I think a top four position for United should easily be within their grasp.

They have an eight-point cushion to West Ham in fifth and with nine games to go, a few home wins should seal top four and second place too.

It’s integral to the idea that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is progressing in his role as United manager that they finish second and stay as close to Man City as possible.

Will Dean Henderson remain in goal or will David De Gea come back in?

It’s a really tough one to call, given Solskjaer’s tendency to stay loyal to De Gea given the opportunity.

But Henderson did little wrong during the Spaniard’s paternity leave absence and is clearly the coming man in goal for United.

My personal opinion is that Henderson deserves to have the shirt as he’s deserved the chance, and Solskjaer might finally lean that way too.

Who will be the player that Albion need to keep a close eye on?

Bruno Fernandes is the obvious shout here.

He’s United’s talisman and has previous experience of doing it against Brighton, too.

To say United are reliant on Fernandes is an understatement — they are overly reliant on him as their creative fulcrum.

If he performs well, then United will surely win.

How will they line-up?

Henderson; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw; McTominay, Pogba; Greenwood, Fernandes, Rashford; Cavani. 

That depends on the fitness of Rashford and Cavani, who have both endured injury issues this season.

Anthony Martial is a doubt after suffering a knock while playing for France.

Pogba hasn’t started many games of late but he could drop in there, with Fred possibly on the bench.

What will the score be?

My prediction is a 3-1 win for United. I can see Brighton scoring but I don’t see Solskjaer’s side slipping up in this one.
