Man United welcome Brighton to Old Trafford in an eye-catching English FA Cup third-round tie.

The hosts are yet to replace their former manager, Ruben Amorin, who was sacked earlier this week after a 1-1 draw against Leeds.

The hosts currently sit seventh in the Premier League, with only Arsenal and Man City scoring more goals than they have in 21 matches.

Man United made it to the fifth round last season, losing at home to Fulham on penalties.

The visitors claimed a valuable point against Man City last time out, which took them up to 11th in the Premier League table.

Brighton have only won one of their last eight matches, with the solitary win coming against relegation-threatened Burnley.

The Seagulls made it to the quarter-finals last season, losing against Nottingham Forest on penalties.
