After picking up wins during the opening weekend of the Premier League campaign, both Brighton and Hove Albion and Manchester United have a chance to make an impressive early season statement when they face off on Saturday. United arguably trudged their way to the finish line on opening day, picking up a 1-0 win over Fulham at Old Trafford that left plenty to be desired. Brighton, meanwhile, notched the most impressive win of opening weekend with a 3-0 win at Everton, marking a successful start to Fabian Hurzler's spell in charge of the club.
Both teams still have plenty to prove at this early stage of the season, though this game could serve as a progress report of sorts for two ambitious sides.
