Man United injury, suspension news vs. Brighton: Luke Shaw return date emerges after positive injury update

Manchester United will be aiming to make it successive wins in the Premier League for the first time this season when they welcome Brighton & Hove Albion to Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon.

The Red Devils will enter the contest off the back of a 3-1 success over Southampton, with Amad Diallo netting a late hat trick for the 20-time English champions to spare their blushes against the division's basement club.

Ruben Amorim's side are currently 12th in the Premier League table, five points behind ninth-placed Brighton, so another victory here would be valuable in their bid to move into the top half of the division.
