This weekend, we will have the actions and emotions of the matches that correspond to the 22nd matchday of the 2024/25 season of the English Premier League.
As we have mentioned on previous occasions, Liverpool remains at the top of the standings, with Arsenal as the main contenders. However, it seems unlikely that any team can prevent the Reds from being the champions this season, considering that the Gunners are 4 points behind and one game behind, while Manchester City is sixth in a season to forget.
Manchester United knows that, from now on, in this second half of the season, they will have to display their full potential, as finishing as high as possible in the standings will depend on it. Their next challenge will be against a complicated Brighton that has had a better season.

Why Bet on Manchester United?
There is no doubt that the Red Devils’ season has been extremely bad. The team is ranked 15th in the standings, with a terrible record of 6 wins, 5 draws, and 9 losses, with 23 goals scored and 28 conceded.
As we can see, United is struggling on all fronts on the pitch, so they need to make a 180° turnaround if they want to, at least, get closer to the upper-middle of the standings of Premier League.
The departure of some key players has been decisive in this United debacle and if not stopped, the team could come dangerously close to the relegation zone.
Manchester United come into this matchday after accumulating three defeats and a draw in their last four games played.This undoubtedly shows that the team has a lot of problems, and there is no doubt that the near future is not clear for them.
Why Bet on Brighton?
On the other hand, we have Brighton, another team that has also failed to reach that level of previous seasons, where they were close to the European places.
Currently,Brighton is ranked #11 in the standings, with a record of 6 wins, 10 draws, and four losses, with 30 goals scored and 29 conceded. While the team maintains a positive record, the 10 draws have caused them to drop a lot of points so far.
If Brighton wants to continue with their goal of qualifying for Europe, they will have to win everything from now on, and what better way to start a positive streak than against a team that is not playing well either, such as United.
Brighton are winless in their last five games, so they will be determined to break that streak on matchday 22.
Final Betting Analysis: Manchester United vs. Brighton
In the last 10 meetings between these two teams, we have both United and Brighton have won on five occasions each. This means that the series is even in the last 3 or 4 seasons between these two teams.
